Please note that you must replace SDL in SyncTerm v1.1 with SDL version 2.0.22 if you want to use SyncTerm v1.1 on Lion. Do not use newer versions of SDL because newer versions of SDL require Core Graphics which Lion does not have. P.S. Apple introduced Core Graphics in Mountain Lion (10.8). So if you want to use the latest versions of SDL in SyncTerm v1.1 (or later), go ahead and use my instructions above. It should work just fine. (I tested it on High Sierra). Just make sure you are running Mountain...

I finally got SyncTerm v1.1 to run on Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5. I had to replace SDL2 inside the SyncTerm Application with the latest SDL2 version (Version 2.0.22) from the official SDL website https://www.libsdl.org/download-2.0.php FYI -- For those who are interested, below are the steps for the fix: Download SyncTerm 1,1 (i.e. syncterm-1.1-osx.zip) from Sourceforge Download SDL2 version 2.0.22 from https://www.libsdl.org/download-2.0.php Unzip syncterm-1.1-osx.zip Mount the image SDL2-2.0.22.dmg Right...

Oops. I spoke to soon. SyncTerm 1.2b does NOT run well on Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5. It launches and I see the screen. But a few seconds later, SyncTerm 1.2b also crashes. Just like SyncTerm 1.1. I might try building the SyncTerm 1.1 and 1,2b from source using the native Xcode gcc compiler. Are there any instructions on how to build SyncTerm from source?

SyncTerm 1.1 for Mac crashes on startup on Lion 10.7.5

P.S. You may want to consider adding a c++11 test to give a better error message during the configuration of the faac software.

I was finally able to compile faac 1.29.9.2 on Mac OS X Lion by using a different compiler -- cxx11 1.1. I added the following to the Macports Portfile for faac and it compiled: PortGroup cxx11 1.1
