How to install my version (F. Hecht)  of FreeFem++ with mpi 

on your mac under Snow Leopard.  (28/06/2011)

1) to install my binary 

This do not change the freefem++ install in /Application

to change install form  FreeFem++v3.13-3-snow-leopard_MacOsX.tgz

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

so you can use the delfaut mpi tools to launch freefem++-mpi .

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 

10.6.*) 

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

curl -O   $url/freefem++-3.13-3-snow-leopard-tar-mpi.gz;

curl -O   $url/openmpi-1.4.1-snow-leopard-g95-macport.tar.bz2;

sudo tar jxvf  openmpi-1.4.1-snow-leopard-g95-macport.tar.bz2 -k -C /;

sudo tar zxvf  freefem++-3.13-3-snow-leopard-tar-mpi.gz  -C /;

echo " install OK " ;;

 *) echo Sorry not in Snow Leopard 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++/3.13-3/examples++-tutorial/cavityNewtow.edp

To launch the MPI version with graphics: 

ff-mpirun -np 4   /usr/local/share/freefem++/3.13-3/examples++-mpi/DDM-Schwarz-Lap-2dd.edp -glut ffglut
