SCAN is available in a windows incarnation from CED, but this is not tried. If you do not know the password, you must ask DC. There is also decent Windows version of AUTPLOT. SCAN, EKDIST and AUTPLOT are essential at first. You need both the setup and the individual programs. Or, better, download zipped files from the new site (no password needed). ĭownload DCProgs: (free, but registration needed). You can still access the hardware controls using the ‘fn’ key (above ‘delete’). You can change this mapping in OS X under the System Preferences > Keyboard setting (‘use F1, F2 etc keys as function keys’). By default on the Mac these are mapped to hardware volume/brightness controls and dashboard etc. You can alter this by unchecking the ‘numpad enter’ mapping in the VMWare Fusion preferences.ĭCProgs also makes use of the function keys, to save preferences. In VMWare, the enter key on the number pad doesn’t map to enter on the VM by default, but instead the much less useful ‘Alt-Green’. Preparing VM and Mac keyboard settings for DCProgs SCAN on AP’s 2012 iMac under VMWare Fusion On newer 2012 iMacs, it seems that they can run full-screen. On a Macbook Pro, they readily run in full screen, but on a 2008 iMac (24in) they run in a window. Whether the DOS programs run in a window or as full screen seems to depend on the type of Mac that you use. SCAN on AP’s 2008 iMac under VMWare Fusion Once you have a working Windows install, you can proceed to download the DCProgs suite as usual (see ). XP is creaky now and has for many years been prone to viral infection.

You can still use the network under Mac OS X, and drag files into the VM as needed. AVG is a good free antivirus – your Mac will not protect you from rootkits etc! You may opt to turn the network off for the Virtual Machine once you have installed everything. You will need to download some things, so obtain Firefox or equivalent.
#AXOGRAPH X COMPATABILITY MAC OX INSTALL#
Allow some time to install patches to XP. Install Windows XP (Open VMWare, select File > New and follow the instructions). Parallels has not been tried but should be equivalent. Sun/Oracle virtual box also works and is free, but the environment isn’t as nice as VMWare. For machines running OSX Lion (10.7) or later, you will need Fusion 4. All of the analysis for Carbone and Plested (2012) was done this way. DCProgs (DOS version) runs fine under a Win XP virtual machine in VMWare Fusion. DCProgs doesn’t run natively under OSX, but on Intel Macs, virtualization is highly evolved and reliable. Preparing the analysis environment First, set up your Mac with DCProgs.
