I wonder why a console app should complain about... X11.
However from my experience with craftys Makefile I suspect
some problem there. Most likely Bob some day got some
instructions how to compile but I know quite some versions
of crafty that do not compile out of the box even on a plain
Linux using gcc. (Bob seems to use icc only, at least the
Makefile is better there.)

So, in short, I guess this problem could be fixed within
craftys Makefile. I'd have a look for this e.g. at
http://crafty.darwinports.com/
(Only a first guess that looks promising. I don't one an
Apple myself.)

Besides you could of course safely drop crafty from scid and
just use any version that runs on your box. Though you'll
need crafty for a lot of Pascals really cool features use
this engine hardwired.

Generally I suspect that if you don't issue a

    setenv PATH ".:${PATH}"

if you try to run scid from it's build directory.

I'd guess that the default TCL and TK + their dev-packages
need X. But hte TclTkAquas dev looks promising though I did
not find them at a first glance. Probably they are packaged
with the core distribution? Probably they need an additional
path to be set up?
