He does a good job but it requires me to install a new GCC/GCC++ environment (in /usr/local which is not a default on OSX). I have no idea what that will do to my current installation and all the tools I use and build. Secondly: OpenMP is benificial on Multicore. G5 is a ppc dual-core as are most Intels currently. There are some high-end quad-core Xeon Macs as well. When running on Dual-Core you don't want to use both cores (at least I won't. It will stop your system from doing anything else). On a high-end Quad-Core Xeon you might want to use 2-3 cores. Thirdly: Gaurav's packages are not universal, which means that I might have to do an awful lot of work of making it universal. Fourthly: Currently I have no idea how to package that into a portable bundle (Hugin), let alone a universal bundle. This last might not be necessary. It is also for mac users possible to use an enblend/enfuse from "outside" the bundle which would simplify the job.
Being very busy currently with quite some things going on, I don't want to start another project. It might be relatively easy, but maybe not at all. Maybe later. Next to the other "projects" my goals for enblend are (in this order): - Make it work with cmake. - Patch it so that enblend/enfuse can create >2GB tiff files which is currently not possible due to a TIFF/OSX incompatibility. - Try to build 64bit stand-alone enblends/enfuses. The later versions have currently problems with that (that is: I have problems with it). - Make enblend/enfuse work on Snow Leopard. Currently there seem to be problems with that. Fortunately there is a great community of enblend builders on OSX :-( (I think I'm currently the only one as others use my builds also in their bundles/plugins and so on.).
