Hi Alan
I believe that it compiles on Unix-ish systems so it should run on
mac. I have of course no first hand experience.
The other question is about input method.
I see
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1468922
that setxkbmap has disappeared from mac :-(
So we will need to look for an emacs (rather than window-system)
solution.
As it happens I asked on emacs-devel list
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2013-10/msg00365.html
and a long thread evolved in which among others David de la Harpe
Golden gave a first cut at an emacs input method
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2013-10/msg00513.html
Its really in hacked-up stage as of now and I am travelling so cant
see it through to something more polished for a few weeks.
Still if it works please let me know
If I were trying, Id try to first start apl in emacs with something
like eshell. Then use David's input method.
