Getting started with logic analyzers - MacOS version

Cool!

Anyone know if it's possible to build fx2pipe for os X?

I got the 6502Decoder tools to build, but trying to do the usual configure/make for fx2pipe fails on missing linux includes:

./../usb_io/../usb_io/wwusb.h:25:10: fatal error: 'linux/usbdevice_fs.h' file not found

I never got any of this working in MacOS, and I tried and tried. I ended up just doing everything in linux.

I haven't heard of anyone getting fx2pipe to work in MacOS.

I would be interested to hear of reports of whether it works on newer Linux distributions

One person had an issue (in Linux Mint Debian Edition):

There is possible alterative to fx2pipe called cannelloni, linked in the above issue. This might work on MacOS.

Unfortunately cannelloni won't build either, it depends on signalfd which doesn't exist on os x.

It sounds like it might be possible to replace with kqueue (see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/105 ... o-signalfd) but I'm not sure how much work would be involved.
