Is anyone familiar with building SyncTerm from source on macOS? I haven't found specific instructions for macOS, and the documentation seems ... scattered.

I tried building the source .tgz and from Synchronet git and didn't succeed with either. It's unclear whether I am missing a step building or missing dependencies.

If anyone is familiar with it, I could use a walkthrough! Thanks!

Yes, I am. Or you could reach the author, Deuce in #synchronet at irc.synchro.net

I suppose you would be familiar with it! :) I am going to try to catch Deuce on IRC one of these evenings, but I am not going to promise I won't be back to ask you questions also. ;)

Thanks for the reply Rob, I am sure I have seen you post this before so I appreciate your patience having to repeat yourself!
