Installation Mac OS

The installation procedure is

make; make install

(see Linux instructions).

There is a lazy pointer problem with the Tiger release of Mac OS (gcc 4):

dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: lazy pointer not found
dyld: lazy pointer not found
Trace/BPT trap

Latest news: This is a bug in the linker (ld) according to an entry of the Apple mailing list.

Workaround 1

Edit the makefile in order to remove the g++ -s option (strip), and recompile.

Workaround 2

Compile highlight using gcc 3.x.

make CXX=g++-3.3

or

gcc_select 3.3; make

If you cannot run highlight on an Intel Mac, try to compile it on a PPC Mac and run the binary on the Intel box.
