Gnu Software For Mac Os X



Obtaining GNU PSPP

Gnu software list

PSPP is GNU software. You can obtain it the same way as with anyGNU software. PSPP should work on most modern computers and most operatingsystems. Systems which have been known to work include:GNU/Hurd,GNU/Linux,Darwin (Mac OS X), OpenBSD,NetBSD, FreeBSD, and Windows.

Packaged versions of Octave for GNU/Linux systems are provided by the individual distributions described in the Octave wiki. These packages are created by volunteers. The delay between an Octave source release and the availability of a package for a particular GNU/Linux distribution varies. GNU Make is the tool of choice for developers who want to generate binaries, executables and other non-source files from a program's source. The GNU Make utility can do that with the help of a specially crafted file named makefile which tells it where all of the program's source files are, as well as the exact. GNU is a recursive acronym for 'GNU's Not Unix!' , chosen because GNU's design is Unix-like, but differs from Unix by being free software and containing no Unix code. Development of the GNU operating system was initiated by Richard Stallman while he worked at MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory.It was called the GNU Project, and was publicly announced on September 27, 1983.

Binaries

We do not distribute precompiled binaries of PSPP. Computers come with so many different archtectures, kernels, operating systems that it would not be feasible for us to do so. However most modern operating systems come with PSPP pre-packaged. To install it, you simply type: in the case of Debian derived systems; or in the case of Red Hat derived systems. For systems which have no conventional package manager, the procedure is somewhat harder. You must explicitly download the binary, and follow the instructions which come with it. Some such binaries of which we are aware are listed below:

  • Windows: installers or all downloadable files.
  • Mac OS X: Install a DMG bundle for recent versions of Mac OS, or use MacPorts to build and install PSPP on a wider range of Mac OS version. With MacPorts, run port install pspp-devel to get the latest and most featureful version of PSPP, or port install pspp to get an older but possibly better tested version (more information).

Please note: Because the PSPP developers have not prepared these binaries, we cannot in general vouch for them.

Source

Gnu Software For Windows

If you want to compile and install PSPP yourself, you can get the source code fromhttp://ftpmirror.gnu.org/pspp.Should this link be unavailable or unreasonably slow, please select a local mirror site.Once you have downloaded the tarball, refer to the INSTALLfile for installation instructions.

Development Versions

Gnu Software For Mac Os X 10.10

For

Gnu Software For Mac Os X High Sierra

PSPP is under continual improvement. You can get development versions if you are interested to see what the developers are working on. Development versions have undergone less testing than released versions.

Gnu Linux Os

You can fetch the latest development sources fromthe Savannah GITrepository.The installationprocedure is more complex than for released versions, so werecommend this only for developers.

Automated builds of the developmentversions are performed typically every day.
