Here are my notes of the last install on High Sierra with homebrew, in case it
can help …
1) Install homebrew
2) Install survex via homebrew (cf. survex site web)
3) brew install tcl-tk
4) install the mactex package
5) add in ~/.profile :
export PATH=/Library/TeX/texbin:$PATH
6) brew install vtk
7) In therion/loch, change the Makefile :
comment: #VTKLIBPATH = $(shell tclsh ./getvtkver.tcl libpath)
add: VTKLIBPATH = /usr/local/lib/
8) In Therion directory
make config-macosx
make
