Compiling MegaHAL on OS X

Build on OS X

Edited from these instructions - http://blog.marc-seeger.de/2008/03/04/compiling-megahal-on-osx/

• Download MegaHAL: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=10585&release_id=15640
• Search-replace command that worked for me to fix malloc problem:

perl -pi -w -e 's/\#include <malloc.h>/\#include <\/usr\/include\/malloc\/malloc.h>/g;' megahal-9.1.1/*.c

• Force to compile 32 bit

sed -i .bak 's/CFLAGS=/CFLAGS=-m32 /g' megahal-9.1.1/Makefile 

gugh

Install mh_python

• make pythonmodule doesn't work

python setup.py build

sudo python setup.py build install
