Note: Thes instructions are hampered by the fact that I am writing them after doing the installations and getting every thing working. I will try testing them out at some point on another Intel based Mac. If you try the instructions and find problems let me know (address link below).
X11
Wine (and therefore ATCSMon) runs under X11, a standard Unix Window environement.
This is an easy one, it is included with your Tiger or Leopard install disks.
- Insert your Mac OS X Install Disk 1
- Open the disk
- Open the folder Optional Installs
- Open the Optional Installs.mpkg file
- Click through the Installer dialogs till you get to the Custom Install on... window.
- Click on the triangle before Applications
- Check the X11 box
- Click on the Continue button
- Click on the Install button
- Quit the Installer when it is finished
MacPorts is an installer package similar to RPM and others that makes installing software written for Unix fairly easy to install on a Mac.
- Go to MacPorts Installer and download the appropriate Installer for your system version.
- Go ahead and install MacPorts.
Wine is the program that runs Windows programs on an Intel processor under the Mac OS.
- Open X11 (the application was installed in the Application folder earlier).
- You may want to keep this application in the dock.
- An xterm window should appear.
- Type export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH return
- Using a Text Editor create a file with the following contents
export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH
export MANPATH=/opt/local/share/man:$MANPATH
- Save it to your home folder (/Users/username) with the filename of ".profile", note the period, it's essential.
- In xterm enter the following command
- Type port install wine return
- Type port install winetricks return
- Type sh winetricks fakeie6 vb6run mdac25 mdac28 jet40 vcrun6 wsh56 allfonts riched30 art2kmin mdac27
