Re: [NTG-context] arm osx

Hi all (especially Keith who successfully got Context running on the new M1 Mac OS ARM) Again thanks to Mojca for providing the Mac OS ARM download. I recently replace my old Mac with the new ARM one. I am having difficulty getting ConTeXt to work. This is what I have done and the information from the console. I downloaded: context-osx-arm64.zip In terminal: cd /Users/charlesdoherty/context-osx-arm64 Ran sh install.sh and all seems ok (following Keith’s advice on privacy). I made an engine for TeXShop based on what worked before: #!/bin/Zsh export PATH=$PATH:~/context-osx-arm64/bin:~/context-osx-arm64/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin ~/context-osx-arm64/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin/mtxrun --autogenerate --script context --directives="system.showerror" --autopdf "$1" --purgeall I made it executable. When I typeset a file in TeXShop using this engine I get: /Users/charlesdoherty/Library/TeXShop/Engines/ARM.engine:3: bad CPU type in executable: /Users/charlesdoherty/context-osx-arm64/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin/mtxrun I have tried various options to no avail but I would really appreciate some help on this (longhand rather than cryptic would be really helpful). Thanks, Charlie

An alternative way is to go to Preferences>>Security and Privacy>>General. And then click on Open anyway and that's it sorted. Best Wishes Keith

Thank you Mojca and Hans for the new binary for MacOS ARM: yesterday I installed it on my new MacBook Pro ARM and everything works like a charm.

Just for the persons who run into difficulties when running sh install.sh and see that MacOS 11 prevents mtxrun to run properly, in the Finder you should find the file

context-osx-arm64/bin/mtxrun

and then you press Control while clicking on it. You’ll see a pop up window, and you choose Open, and when the Finder tells you whether you really want to open that file, you say YES… After this, the install script does what it has to do and you don’t need anymore to authorize mtxrun to run.

Best regards: Otared
