[AMOS-help] Help! :-)

[Tom D. <tg...@gm...>]

Let me state, right up front, that I am really not much of a unix guy.  
But I can usually get things done, slowly.
I'm trying to get Amos/Hawkeye installed on a brand new Mac Pro 64bit 
work station. I _really_ need to look at some assemblies.

My first mistake (first major one) was installing QT4. I figured out QT 
didn't support Amos, and have started to install QT3, (3.3.6) and have 
just gotten the error that "This version of Mac OS X is unsupported."

I know, I'm not even close to installing Amos, but it's taken me 4 days 
to get to here, and I felt t hat maybe it was time to ask and see if I 
can get some help.

Thanks!
Tom

Hi Tom,

Have you tried to install qt3 from darwinports? I think they have qt3  
3.3.8 now, but could not check, their site is currently down:

http://qt3-mac.darwinports.com/

If you have darwinports installed, you can try to install qt3 by going  
to the right folder (usually the one below) and then typing the next  
command:

%  cd /opt/local/bin/portslocation/dports/qt3-mac
% sudo port install qt3-mac

If you don't have darwinports installed, you have to start there...
http://darwinports.com/install/

Anyway, installation of qt is tricky...

There is also a precompiled version of a (somewhat old) hawkeye for  
macosx available: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/amos/hawkeye.osx.tar.gz?modtime=1162569385&big_mirror=0

HTH!
