Multiplatform builds and dealing with dependencies are truly a nightmare with any project, not just Io. If you find a project where it's not a problem it's because you are using the one platform it works with or a large amount of continuous effort is invested in it. My plan atm is to solve this by making a binary installer that puts Io and all it's dependencies in a single folder. Will likely start on OSX and make it available as a Mac App Store app so people can single click install Io and a graphical REPL.

So far, so good. It installs certain addons 'automagically' and they are there in /usr/local/lib/io/addons and seem to work. All I wanted to do is install the Regex addon and no combination of anything I tried (or read to try via a net search) has worked. The closest I got was to cd to the Regex directory type cmake ..; make and copy the result to /usr/local/lib/io/addons dir... but that bombed as well (said it could not load Range even though Range was working. >> >> The CMakeList.txt file in the addons directory does not have the Regex addon commented out, but it does not get built nor installed. >> >> Thx for any pointers >> > > > > > ------------------------------------ > > Yahoo!
