To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Hi, I discovered Pioneer a few days ago, congratulations to the team, a dream came true...
...except that I'm using MacOSX (10.4) (on a laptop).
So you ca guess what my questions are :
1) is there a small chance that a handful of changes to the linux source could allow me to compile it for OSX ?
2) if it's more complex than that, does anyone plan to make a mac version sooner or later ?
3) any other suggestion ? (beside buying parallels or osx 10.6...)
thanks for advices and keep up the good work.
EDIT :
obviously, even if I'm a total noob, I tried the straight ahead solution (launch X11 and follow the compiling instructions for linux). It gave this :
