According to what I know, there is a precompiled version of VMD running
under OS X (one of our lab members has a beautiful mac and vmd is
working good, though), so try to go to the VMD webpage and take a look
to the precompiled binaries.

Good luck!
Peace,

Michel

Subject: vmd-l: compiling VMD on mac

Hi John

I'm about to buy a 17" powerbook, and I was wondering how hard it is to
compile VMD on a mac. I've tried and failed on linux before, so I'm a
little nervous. I'm going to need a fully operational python interpreter

built in. Can you make any suggestions? Also, what are the advantages
and disadvantages of writting a VMD plug-in (Extension?)?

I'm really looking forward to this Rosetta/VMD project! I'm probably
going to get started once the powerbook order comes thru.
