Document OS X incompatibilities
It is my ultimate goal for menugen to run on OS X, however a few oddities prevent that.
-
bash
is ancient.menugen
requires at least version 4.0 for hash tables in bash. It also currently requires bash 4.2+ because of itsdeclare -g
statements, but they might be redundant. I will investigate that. -
md5sum
doesn't exist. You can install it via Homebrew withbrew install md5sha1sum
- Some
sed
commands might not work due to the difference between BSD utils and GNU utils. This might actually be fixable if reported. Alternatively, one could just install GNU sed.
Also rofi
doesn't support OS X - only the CLI interface with fzf
works.
