To build from source, download the source from CVS: Two good binary downloads are linked by Apple: Your best bet is to build it from source or try to find a reasonably current binary on line. This is just beginning to be supported, so there are no I've found that the best emacs for OS X is the Complete lists exist elesewhere on the web, such as: Since OS X 10.2, Apple includes optimized ATLAS/Lapack libraries in the vecLib framework.īoth NAG f95 and g77 accept the -framework veclib flag to link to veclib. There is even a precompiled G4 libraryĪTLAS contains a full tuned BLAS and a partial LAPACK. Macs are now included in the Automatically Tuned Linear Algebra Software ( ATLAS) package. If you do any matrix operations on a G4/G5, you'll want to use LAPACK and BLAS libraries that take advantage of the vector processor. If you use a commercial fortran-95 compiler, such as NAGware,Ĭompile yourself according to these instructions These OS X ports only support the fortran-77 interface via g77. Is available for OS X from the above link or from The best solution is to use a platform-independent self-describingįormat such as netCDF or HDF or even gzipped ascii. Problems with sharing binary data among platforms. x86 (Intel, AMD) and Alpha (Dec/Compaq/HP) use "little endian". The Mac uses a different binary format from Intel, AMD, and Alpha systems. MacPorts now has a GUI also, Porticus, which requires User friendly (when used for binary installs and the FinkCommander GUI)īut MacPorts is more reliable.
