Hi Karl, I’ve done this. I opened the “pdl [here]” from the Finder and got a warning that it was downloaded off the Internet. On running it anyway, I got ‘Not authorised to send to Finder’ described in the README. I did “Edit”, and on trying to save it, it says it’s locked. On “save anyway”, it says I don’t have permission to save the file and I should change permissions on it with “Get info”. I did it and it didn’t show as locked. I gave up on that.
I tried the “source” option (I use bash) in the README, and on running “pdl” I got “Bad CPU type in executable” (I’m on an Intel Mac). Notes about the README: you’ve bundled 2.084, which is about a year ago. Also there is PDL::FFTW3 0.18 from 2021 (there’s a 0.19), PGPLOT 2.28 (there’s a 2.29). Also, if we get further and you want to put it on a GitHub release, can you make sure it’s on an accurate tag? There was a “v2.025” added to (I think) 2.085. I didn’t know what it was. Please only use tags that exist on there already, and let me add any tags needed (there won’t be any new ones needed).

Hi there, Can a Mac user test this version of SciPDL? I’d very much appreciate it. (Monterey or later) https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/moao3dr43wxa7o1cs6cam/SciPDL-v2.084-Test.dmg?rlkey=1xcfi258mb3r88m2h0gq2x43f&dl=0 I am experimenting with ‘signing’ all the code using my Apple Developer ID and then ‘notarising' it. (Yes these are two different things** and it was complicated to figure all this stuff out). This all means you should not get the MacOS Gatekeeper warning about ‘code from an unauthorised developer’ when you run it, and it will actually run rather than block. (The old way was to run a nasty shell script to workaround this.) So should be a matter of open the DMG, drag PDL to /Applications, run the setup and try ‘pdl’. I need someone who is not me to confirm that it ‘just works’ and there are no scary warnings. Use any of the demos or your own code. best Karl (**TMI: Signing means it is verified as coming from me, notarising means it has had a malware scan on Apple’s servers, quite complex outside Xcode ecosystem. I had to pay $$ for a Apple Dev account).
