How to make it compatible with mac os?

I don't have a Mac myself so I can't test it... in principle, ranwhen should work on any platform that provides last.

Hi On the mac OS, the command "last" does not have the "-F" and "-R" option.

It's currently looking pretty bleak then. My only advice is you could try to install a custom version of last, maybe by compiling from source the version Linux uses.

Alternatively, ranwhen could parse the data file used by last (wtmp) directly. That would requite a major upgrade to ranwhen, though.
