Hello everyone,

Has anyone had success compiling XCrySDen on a Mac with an Apple chip
recently?

I haven't been able to get it to run. I tried the steps provided by Minkyu
Park below, but I'm stuck at step 7. Could Minkyu or someone else who had
success recently provide more explicit steps?

Thank you very much in advance.

Best,
Mehmet
