X WINDOWS ON OS X

Assuming you have followed the instructions for installing Inferno on Mac OS X

If you are getting a message like:

   	emu: win-x11 open No such file or directory, DISPLAY is not set

INSTALL AND LAUNCH X11

X11 is available as an optional install on the Mac OS X v10.3 Panther, and Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger install disks.

http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/x11formacosx.html

The Installer puts X11.app into /Applications/Utilities.

double-click to launch.

LAUNCH INFERNO

When have an X11 environment running:

   	$ export DISPLAY=:0.0
   	$ emu -r /Users/ross/inferno/
   	; wm/wm

You should now see the Inferno Window Manager.

CARBON ON OS X

This interface fits in better with the rest of OS X, but is only available in the latest Subversion checkout.

Assuming you have checked this out, you'll need to run a normal build, i.e.

     	$ cd inferno-os
     	$ sh ./makemk.sh
     	$ mk nuke
     	$ mk install

By default, the X Windows version is built and installed. To replace this with the Carbon version, now run the following:

     	$ cd emu/MacOSX
     	$ mk nuke
     	$ mk -f mkfile-a install

Now you should be able to launch inferno by just typing the following in Terminal.app:

     	$ emu -r /Users/ross/inferno/
     	; wm/wm

And again, you should see the Inferno Window Manager, but this time in a Carbon window.
