How to install my version (F. Hecht)  of FreeFem++ with mpi or not  

on your mac under Lion .  (29/09/2011)

To install my binary 

Remark, now the freefem++ application do not work on MacOs 10.7 Lion because the ff++ launcher was to old (in ppc code), so the simple way is to launch FreeFem++ is form the terminal or from a textedtor like (Fraise).

The difficulty is under mac, they are no fortran by default

downloads  for page https://www.ljll.math.upmc.fr/hecht/ftp/FF-conf/

On a terminal do : (cut and past the following  blue lines)

(cd /tmp;

case `sw_vers -productVersion` in 

10.7.*) 

url=http://www.freefem.org/ff++/ftp/mac;

curl -O   $url/freefem++-v3.14-MacOs-10.7.tar.gz;

curl -O   $url/FreeFem++.app.tgz;

curl -O   $url/openmpi-1.4.4rc2-95-macport-MacOs10.7.tar.bz2;

sudo tar jxvf  openmpi-1.4.4rc2-95-macport-MacOs10.7.tar.bz2 -k -C /;

sudo tar zxvf  freefem++-v3.14-MacOs-10.7.tar.gz  -C /;

sudo tar zxvf  FreeFem++.app.tgz  -C /Applications;

echo " install OK " ;;

 *) echo Sorry not in 10.7 / Lion version; 

     sw_vers;; 

esac )

Remark this  do not change any existing file in openmpi due to -k option in 

tar command. 

To launch freefem++  run in a terminal do

 FreeFem++  /usr/local/share/freefem++/3.14/examples++-tutorial/cavityNewtow.edp

To launch the MPI version with graphics: 

ff-mpirun -np 4   /usr/local/share/freefem++/3.14/examples++-mpi/DDM-Schwarz-Lap-2dd.edp -glut ffglut

if you need to recompile some freefem++ plugins  (dylib)
