Hi Markus, We are certainly interested in getting an OS X version working, and the beta development tools Apple recently released got us a lot further than we had been able to get previously. Right now, those tools have a bug in the runtime linker and we need Apple to fix it to get any farther. When Python attempts to load the C++ Chimera core module (which in turn links in some C++ libraries that require initialization) the linker gets hung in a semaphore lock. We have communicated our difficulties to Apple representatives and are waiting for them to get back to us about submitting the simple test case we made to reproduce the problem. We expect to hear from Apple soon, but have no idea how long it will take to go from bug submission to a usable fix. Keep your fingers crossed. :-) Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab pett@cgl.ucsf.edu http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu
