Re: Getting Started on the Mac

Hello,

I've ported several projects between Windows and MacOSX.
I copy the project to a network storage server, and copy
to the desired system.

First, don't try to copy the project file.  It contains
Windows-specific paths and compiler-specific options.  Make
a fresh project file after you've got the directory
and compiler established on the target system.

Second, when copying the resource file, convert from CR-LF
to newline.  ISS can supply you with a pair of utilities
(one each way) to do this.

Otherwise, _standard_ Fortran and Winteracter calls have
worked for me on both systems flawlessly.

I use the Absoft editor on Mac, because the X version
of WED doesn't colorize the Fortran source.  :-(  I'm
not using XCode, so I don't have any opinion there.
You must have X11R6 and Motif installed, the Winteracter
stuff has directions.  I'm using MacOSX 10.4.3.

I use Lahey/Fujitsu 5.7 on Win2000, Absoft 9.2 on MacOSX,
and Intel 9.2 on Linux.  Beyond the OS-specific stuff
(paths, compiler options, end-of-lines), I have not had
a problem going among any of these systems.  I'm making
files (.png) of graphs now, not just screen fulls.

If you find an issue, ISS is very helpful.

Hi,

I just ordered Winteracter for the Mac.

How do I start getting the tools and the know how to port my
CVF/Winteracter optical design program to g95/Winteracter for the Mac.
I have an iMac G4 800 MHz with 1 GB of SDRAM, 48 GB free on one drive
and 74 GB free on the other. Running OSX 10.3.9.

How do I get g95 and assorted other free tools to use it? I am porting
a CVF/Winteracter optical design program from Windows to the Mac.

I have never developed on the Mac before. HELP !

Only want to develop for OSX.
