ScanTailor for OSX is here

Post by rob »

This post is where you can get ScanTailor for OSX. Big thanks go to n9yty who created the script which compiles everything from source and generates a nice OSX app and package.

First, install Qt from here.

Once you've installed that, you can install ScanTailor from here. Current version is 1.0.0beta11.

Enjoy!

thankyou - worked beautifully!

Rob - what do you mean by "binary"? "

I see often when I go to DL (e.g. dj viewer) shows me:
Source Packages
Source TAR.GZ djview-4.7.tar.gz

Binary Packages
Fedora/Redhat Available from Fedora.
Suse Available from OpenSuse.
Debian Available from Debian(apt-get!)
Ubuntu Available from Ubuntu(apt-get!)
Windows (x86) Available on Sourceforge
MacOS (x86,ppc) Available on Sourceforge

A binary is a file that you download and install to your computer and can immediately run. As opposed to source, which requires you to install development tools, check your dependencies, download additional libraries from diverse locations, rotate widdershins at midnight, clean your cat's litterbox even if you don't have a cat, wave a dead chicken, and then -- if the luck of the gods be with you -- you end up with a binary. Which you can immediately run.

Does ST use wxWidgets? I ask because, not thinking, I manually removed the default wxMac from my system to avoid conflicts with a newer version installed in a different location for a different program.

No, as far as I am aware, ST only uses QT, not wxWidgets.

Thanks a lot for this. It works! Sometime it collaps, but ...
My main-problem is to save. I get only a file like this; xxx.Scantailor
In win7 it goes to a Folder named "out" and inside there are gif or tiff... or...

So what did I wrong?
I changed to mac version, because in the version of Win (0.9.9.2, the last?)
I cant work with the new Modul "Dewarping". And in the MAc version (1.11) it works great. But I cant
save the result for changing than to PDF!

Running the Output stage saves the output files to the "out" directory which is in your input file directory. Saving the project just generates the *.ScanTailor file, which is just the file which saves all your settings for that project.
