Hi all, Well looks like I will have to finally go from 10.3 to 10.4 as some software I have been using is now 10.4 only (due to java versions). So I imagine...

Hi Tyler, I upgraded from 10.3 to 10.4 a few months ago and had no problems (well except for ssh and X11 where you want to use ssh -Y instead of ssh -X to get...
I also had no problems upgrading my desktop to Tiger. A few things moved around, and you'll also need to update your fink packages I think, but otherwise it...
Hey mate. I didn't have any problems except for a few bits of code that I have written that don't compile under gcc4.0. Fortunately, however, it preserves...

The one problem I noticed -- after a while -- was periodic slowdowns on my iBook G4 (800 MHz), which I *think* had something to do with Spotlight constantly...

Hello, I've been trying to install CASA 19_1315 on OS X 10.4.7. This is my first attempt to install CASA/AIPS++ on Mac under the bash shell. I found the...
Lewis, My guess is that you are trying to run the wrong version of the aips+ + driver. Try using the one in /opt/local/bin and see if that works. If not, can...

Hi Tim, Aha! Your guess was right. I didn't realize there are two drivers. BTW, why is this? Anyway, CASA/AIP++ does launch now. Thanks. Cheers, Lewis ... Dr....

Hi Karen, I installed g77 from finkcommander, and it complained about one missing library or file (sorry, I can't remember the specifics). I found an older...

Hi Karen, The Portland Group, www.p*group*.com sells a very good compiler for Linux under Intel. They may have plans for a Mac version. Donald...

Well, by installing 'fink' (http://fink.sourceforge.net/) you can have open source sofware on your Mac. Among those packages you will find 'g77' which is a...
Hi, Thanks to everyone who suggested fink. :) Actually I did try that before emailing the list - but as far as I can tell it appears that g77 is not available...

In fact our Macs are all G5 machines. We have not yet been able to get any Intel-based Macs so far. I do hope that they get g77 working... Cheers, Sergio...
g77 does NOT work on the Mactels. It have been told that it is unlikely to ever appear. GNU supports gfortran now and has depricated g77. Some compiler...
Hi Karen, A workaround is to use ppc binary of g77, and it works fine on my Macbook Pro. But since it is not native, it seems that the executables I got from...
Hi Karne, The G95 project has binaries for Intel ("x86") OSX. I haven't actually tried this, since I almost never work with Fortran, but it might be worth...

g95 is definitely the free Fortran compiler to get for Intel Macs. As Peter said, there are pre-built binaries, and if you want it you can compile it yourself....
Karen, Some of the things I check that a FORTRAN 77 compiler will support are: 1. Does it allow preprocessing? If so, is there any restriction on the naming...
