Maybe I am wrong, but my impression was:
- FriCAS builds from sources on Mac OSX with X11 support
- there are packaging systems on Mac which distribute
FriCAS with X11 support
So we are not talking about adding support. Rather, we
do not want to break what is working. It is fine if you
do not want to work with X11 (now or also in the future).
However, the problem is to ensure that various efforts add.
That is why I was asking about "Terminal.app": your earlier
posts suggested that it introduces breakage...
Another thing are versions for user. Namely, for testing
it is fine to test without X11 (ATM in batch mode we can
only test if X11 interface builds, but no more). However
for users versions with X11 interface are much more preferable.
It still makes some sense to offer version without X11
support, but we should make lack of X11 support clear
in documentaion and probably point to alternatives supporting
X11.
