Yes, can understand that, but it never is wrong to have also MacPorts on the radar to learn about its pecularities, although it steals a lot of time and nerves ... > Ps I noticed in the BSF thread that you mention that Apple changed „name" > from macOS to Darwin?

Apple changed the name from MacOS to Darwin a long while ago, ooRexx (using "parse version") returns the name the operating system tells. What you saw was a fix to an ooRexx program (a portable ooRexxTry GUI) written by two different students long ago, when ooRexx reported "MacOS" because MacOS reported that. As I am preparing the GA version of BSF4ooRexx I tested the GUI on the Mac where an error caused by Java all of a sudden (Java 8 in this case, font related) would uncover a bug in ooRexxTry.rxj that had to do with still using "M" where now "D" was returned. The fix in this case was to change the version letter from "D" to "M" in case "D" got returned from ooRexx. This will add Mac specific font names that are to be used by ooRexxTry.rxj and fixed the bug. ---rony
