Launch Terminal (which is where abcm2ps "lives" unless you have some program with a GUI that can export to it; BarFly is supposed to do this in a future version). If you do a "which" command, you will find it in a fairly standard place. (BTW, "%" is given here as a generic Unix prompt.)
% which abcm2ps /usr/local/bin/abcm2ps Now change directory (cd) to where the abc file lives. If it is in the your user folder, you are already there. If the file is called "infile.abc" and is in your desktop, % cd ~/Desktop % abcm2ps infile.abc Or more verbosely % /usr/local/bin/abcm2ps ~/Desktop/infile.abc You should get a postscript file named "Out.ps" in the same directory as the input file. BTW, the version you're using is the so-called "standard" version. Download the more featured "development" release at: -> http://abcplus.sourceforge.net/abcm2ps-3.6.2.pkg.sit I made this same mistake and found that most of the cool features (ones I needed too) are not implemented. Phil Taylor turned me on to MacGhostView, a Carbon implememntation of GSView, which includes a copy of a GUI Postscript to PDF interface called Macps2pdf. acGhostview is $20 shareware, but the Macps2pdf which comes with it appears to be free, and works pretty cleanly. You might have to sort the folder that it comes in since it ends up way at the bottom out of sight. http://www.kiffe.com/macghostview.html Tom on 8/14/03 7:36 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I need a little help. > > I have just gone ahead and downloaded abcm2ps-2.11.3.pkg for > MacOSX from the sourceforge page, and after unstuffing it, I > launched the installer.

I have now run the installer twice with the same results. -- Tom Keays / [EMAIL PROTECTED] To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html
