Thanks. I had forgotten the website was a wiki. I will try to make some edits to consolidate the Mac-related info into one place. Before I do, though, where did the information at http://www.solfege.org/Solfege/FinkInstallMacOsX come from? How old is that info? When I had installed 3.10 with fink, I followed the directions at http://www.solfege.org/Solfege/InstallingSolfege#MacOSX , which are different and quite a bit simpler.
By the way, the downside of suggesting that other Mac people compile Solfege themselves is that other people might not have all the dependencies already installed like I apparently did. But I'll try to put a note on the wiki about dependencies. And speaking of dependencies, I was looking over my log from compiling solfege 3.12, and I notice it couldn't find lilypond or bzr. Are there features of Solfege that might not work without these? --Allen On Jan 24, 2009, at 6:06 PM, Tom Cato Amundsen wrote: > Nice! > Added a notice to the front page and on http://www.solfege.org/Solfege/MacOSX > Feel free to update the page if necessary. > > Tom Cato > > 2009/1/24 Allen McBride <[email protected]>: >> Hi Tom and everyone, >> I thought I'd mention that I just compiled Solfege 3.12.1 on my >> mac, and it >> worked fine.
