Dear users,
first of all I would like to thank you all for Radiance workshop in
Cambridge. It was big pleasure to meet you all there and see what is going
on and what is possible to do. It gave me lots of inspiration and big
motivation to further work.

My question is about how to install Radiance on my Mac. Since now I have
been using Radiance on my Windows machine, running on Learnix distibution of
Ubuntu under VirtualBox. I am very inexpedience user in these things . I
have tried to search in the threats here at mailing list as well as on
Internet, but still I was not able to finish an installation successfully. I
am probably doing some simply mistake, since I guess the installation should
be fairly easy.
What I did so far:
I downloaded main distribution of Radiance from
http://radsite.lbl.gov/radiance/framed.html as well as binaries for Mac,
then unpack them and copied the binaries to /usr/local/bin and libraries
from ray/lib to /usr/local/lib/ray. Then I was not sure what to do next so I
tried to run command "./makeall install". But then there were some errors,
as follows (copied from terminal):

*Making programs...
/usr/local/lib/ray/src/common /usr/local/lib/ray/src
In directory common...
/usr/local/bin/rmake: line 2: exec: make: not found
/usr/local/lib/ray/src
/usr/local/lib/ray/src/rt /usr/local/lib/ray/src
.
.
.
In directory cal...
/usr/local/bin/rmake: line 2: exec: make: not found
/usr/local/lib/ray/src
There were some errors.*

I am quit stack at the moment and don't know what I am doing wrong. Could
anyone help me with this? I would like to know what I should copy where and
which commands I should run to install Radiance, etc.
I have already copy some files into usr folder etc.  and I am little bit
worry to erase any of the files there since it could be very dangerous,
therefore I would like to also know if it is now problem that I did what I
have described above.

Thank you in advance, I will very appreciate any help

David
