4 NGSPICE COMPILATION UNDER macOS
==================================
4 NGSPICE COMPILATION UNDER macOS M1 - M4
=======================================
(tested on a mac mini with Sonoma 13.2.1 and M2 CPU)
4.1 Use precompiled binary package
4.1 Prerequisites
1. Install xcode command line tools
2. Install Homebrew
All installs following are via Homebrew (except for OpenMP)
3. Install ngspice (this will add a lot of dependencies useful
also for compilation)
4 Install gnuplot (plotting externally, or creating ps or png)
5. Install XQuartz, libtool, autoconf, automake, readline, ncurses
6. Install OpenMP from mac.r-project.org (a sufficiently modern OpenMP,
required by the ngspice OSDI interface).
4.2 Compile scripts for the bash terminal
1. standard ngspice executable
compile_macos_clang_M2.sh
2. ngspice as a shared library
compile_macos_clang_M2_shared.sh
5 NGSPICE COMPILATION UNDER macOS (tested with Intel CPUs)
========================================================
5.1 Use precompiled binary package
1. Install an X11 interface (like Xquartz)
2. Packages are available from Homebrew or MacPorts
Install the downloaded NGSPICE package
It may happen though that a package has been compiled without graphics support
3. Open a terminal window and start using NGSPICE

4.4 About compilers
5.4 About compilers
A compile script compile_macos_clang.sh contains all necessary steps for compiling
with the Xcode clang/llvm compiler. This compiler however does not support -fopenmp.
Therefore you may download and install gcc, e.g. from Homebrew and run the new
