Installing Magic on macOS (Tested on Big Sur)

With Brew

Get Homebrew.

brew install cairo tcl-tk tcsh
brew install --cask xquartz
./scripts/configure_mac
make database/database.h
make -j$(sysctl -n hw.ncpu)
make install # may need sudo depending on your setup

Without Brew

Get XQuartz

Build Tcl for X11

We are following the instructions from xschem (https://github.com/StefanSchippers/xschem/blob/master/README_MacOS.md).

We are using not opt but opt2 so that this Tcl does not interfere with tcl-tk from HomeBrew.

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/opt2/tcl-tk  
make
make install

Build Tk for X11

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/opt2/tcl-tk \
--with-tcl=/usr/local/opt2/tcl-tk/lib --with-x \
--x-includes=/opt/X11/include --x-libraries=/opt/X11/lib  
make
make install

Build magic

We need to provide this tcl-tk and suppress compilation errors.

./configure --with-tcl=/usr/local/opt2/tcl-tk/lib \
--with-tk=/usr/local/opt2/tcl-tk/lib \
--x-includes=/opt/X11/include \
--x-libraries=/opt/X11/lib \
CFLAGS=-Wno-error=implicit-function-declaration
make
make install
