Making it portable is some really different beast. Apple does everything it can to not allow building a static binary. You will need to manually edit makefiles for this. This is also the reason for the smaller binary., the libs are not compiled into the binary...

SVNX is a good GUI for SVN on OS X http://code.google.com/p/svnx/ (I especially like the feature of easily going through revisions and reading the commit messages...)

I was about to write that I was able to compile most recent source 😀 (though I did get some errors/warning in the autogen phase) Btw, if you plan to use SVN more often, grab it via SVN.

just to make sure, you are using the same terminal window, right? Also you need to set the environment settings BEFORE running autogen and configure.

Did you set the environment stuff? And with applying patches I refered to that you wanted a customized dosbox. If you just want 0.74 on osx, you can download it from dosbox.com

AFAIK you can't control that. SDL 1.2.14 is lacking in that regard. Whenever SDL 1.3 is released AND Dosbox switches to that it might be possible...

you have set it up correctly, as far as I can tell and I have exactly the same usb/midi adapter. I have no idea why it is failing for you. But then I'm using it on OS X and not on Windows anymore... I'll give it a try now though... I just tried Virtual Machines with both Windows XP and Windows 7 ( …

No, you gotnit wrong. You don't mess with macports, just "port install dosbox" (in terminal) Once that is done, you can compile dosbox by setting the environments variables in terminal cd to the folder where you put dosbox 0.74/svn sources then you apply the patches, autogen, configure and make …

As I wrote the best way is to use macports. I forgot to mention but you can just use macports to install dosbox. "port install dosbox" this will pull in all necessary libs and install/compile them in universal (meaning both 32 and 64bit) and compile dosbox 0.73 (yes they should update their port but …

I think I summed it up in previous posts about compiling on OS X. Get macports, install the needed libs through that (if you are on Snow Leopard make sure you install everything as universal), make sure you set it to compile a 32bit arch (if you are on Snow Leopard this is important) (http://www. …

hmm, I'd say your adapter is broken... Another thing to try, if you happen to own Ultima 7, install Exult (http://exult.sf.net) set it to mt32 (you also need to set the device in the exult.cfg as you have to do with Dosbox) and play. Exult does display some nice sysex messages, for example it says …

either with a text editor or with Total Commander. Total commander will access it as if it were an actual archive with the files but of course as it is only a text file TC can'T actually open the files 😀

yes, there are a couple of programs that do that. But for Audio CDs you don't rip to iso but to bin/cue (bin is the image and cue is a text file that lists the tracks).
