#34819 — Why no pan binary for OSX??

Binaries are available for pan for almost every other platform it is 
available for, but none for OSX.  I'd love to have pan for my MacBook 
12" but don't want to diddle with compiling it myself.

Currently use Unison when I'm on the Mac, but pan is so much better and 
is cross platform.  I've got it on Windows and on my Pixel Chromebook 
with Linux.

The compilation is painless if you install it with MacPorts.

First follow the instructions here:

http://www.macports.org/install.php

Then:

sudo port -v install pan2

Start with the command:

pan2

HTH.

Thanks.  In process of doing that now.  Got Xcode, that takes awhile.  
Tried the compile, needed command line tools, got that.  Then the 
install went OK, really heated up this little Core M!!  :)

But I forgot to get the damned X11.  Getting that now.  I hate 
installers that say 'about a minute' and then just sit there.  If the 
blasted MacBook wasn't getting so warm you'd never know it was doing 
anything.

OK, everything is finally there.  But pan2 doesn't run it, pan does.

Is there a way to create a launcher so I don't have to pop a terminal and 
do things manually?

Note I'm posting from pan!!  :)

command line:

nano pan.command

paste this:
---
#! /bin/bash
pan &
exit
---
save the above

command line:

chmod +x pan.command

Finder: click pan.command

Your quote is garbled. Could be it.

Drag the pan binary down to the Dock (right hand side, beside the trash 
can). I launch tin this way.

Thanks for that.  I kept trying to drag it where the other apps were and it
wouldn't go there.  Never occurred to me to put it on the right side.

The Dock's left side is for GUI apps. The right side is for files and 
documents; even executable files like pan.

Its trivial to compile.

% git clone git://git.gnome.org/pan2
% cd pan2
% ./autogen.sh; make

MacPorts installs all the dependencies needed for the compile. Whatever 
port you wanna install.

It certainly worked well for me.

As a question, how big is Xcode and the MacPorts stuff you need to compile
their ports?  I know it took a significant amount of time to get Xcode
installed.

On my iMac Xcode is 5.7GB, but I'm not sure it's the current version.

MacPorts was not small either. /opt/local/var/macports was close to a
gig, as I recall (that is, macports without installing anything at all).

I used Macports for a long time, but the requirement for Xcode has
caused me to abandon it.

So what are you using instead?

When I installed yesterday, XCode took quite some time to install, MacPorts
a fair bit less, and both far from informative about what they were doing
during the install.  Essentially no feedback.  Added XQuartz and all was
ready to go.

There is a more than fair chance I'll never use all of that again.  Mostly
because I don't use the MB 12" very much unless I'm wanting to work with
Sibelius.  Frankly if I had my druthers, I'd druther just have installed a
pan binary.  Is there some reason that binaries can't be made available as
they are for Windows and Linux?

Of course on a rainy day, with a little boredom added in, I might just
twiddle with all this developer stuff just for the hell of it!  :)

Because someone has to rewrite pan to run under OS/X?

I don't think that is it.  Possibly because there are things missing from a
standard OSX install, like X11 though.

Which is why it has to be rewritten.
