Installation - Mac

The Mac version is less well tested, and should be considered a beta version. Any problems are, however, likely to affect the user interface only, rather than the calculations. I have also had reports of success running the Windows version on emulators for the Mac; speed is only likely to be an issue for the larger calculations (asymmetric tops, for example).

The website has an application packages available for:

• PowerPC: pgopher-MacOSX-powerpc.app.zip compiled for OS X Tiger (10.4) and above.
• Intel: pgopher-MacOSX-i386.app.zip compiled for OS X Tiger (10.4) and above.
  

Unlike earlier versions, these do not use X, so simply double click on the zip file to produce the application that can be run in the normal way.

If the binary does not run on your system you may need to compile from source, or email help-pgopher@bristol.ac.uk.

The Help menu entries do not do anything at the moment, but the help files are available at http://pgopher.chm.bris.ac.uk/Help/ and a zip file containing the current help files can be downloaded from the website.
