'You can't open the application Electrum because it is not supported on this type of Mac.'

I have a MacBookPro running OS X v10.6.8

Intel 2.16GHz Core Duo

2GB 667 MHz DDr2 SDRAM

Hope that helps, although it is NOT what you were expecting Wink

Could you please give this binary a go?

Thanks! OSX 10.6 is 32Bit and I'm guessing this is 64bit only binary, good to know! I will see what I can do about that Smiley

I failed so far to build a 32Bit binary because my python version only has 64Bit support. In order to build a 32bit package I need to use the default installation of python but I can't revert that. I am looking into the option of setting up a VM so I can build both arches.

I am the one who knocks
OSX Instructions?

I see some people are running in on mac, but can't get it running on mine.

If you can come by IRC (#electrum on freenode) I can help you with any problem you might have Smiley

Also for those who are interested, here is the basic outline that Tachikoma gave me that worked:
Code:
# Install HomeBrew (http://mxcl.github.com/homebrew/)

# This installs app required dependencies and a rather old version of Electrum
brew tap maran/homebrew
brew install electrum

# Check out the newest branch (which can be ran from anywhere)
mkdir -p ~/src
cd ~/src
git clone https://github.com/Spesmilo/Electrum.git
cd electrum
./electrum &

Tachikoma is working on an actual OSX package that should hopefully make that a lot less painful, but in the mean time those are the steps that worked for me.

Thanks to the scripts Coblee build it is now possible to generate .dmg files for OSX. The problem though is that the behaviour has been a bit inconsistant.

If you are on OSX or have access to a computer running it please try downloading this file.

Please report back if it works and what the GUI looks like (Black or White).

I like it too.
This is how it looks on Win XP (classic theme):

Ugh, it looks way worse then the OSX gui. Some differences I noticed right away:

  • Horrible font rendering (BTC amount)
  • Different spacing between elements
  • Inactive state for the send button doesn't apply the right font color

I wonder if it's the same on Windows 7, could anybody get a build running on 7?

Don't worry about the font rendering on Windows.
I found the cause of the ugly rendering in that screenshot: the font anti-aliasing
setting had been turned off (system-wide) on that test machine. The default setting is ON. Here's a new screenshot (XP). I really like the improvements and simplification of the UI. Some things still need further tweaking (menu bar width, element spacing).

Hello!

My fromaddr/changeaddr feature I added in february no longer works. Here's a patch:

Is the wallet saved automatically now? If I hit ctrl+C while waiting for the history it seems it's saved...

You should install google analytics on your website Smiley

I do have GA on my page, but it should actually be installed on ThomasV's site to
provide some useful information, as all I can see in my referrers is ecdsa.org... Smiley

That said, I'm not  a huge fan of GA. It doesn't seem to work that well, for me at least.
But perhaps it's just me doing something wrong, but no time to investigate this for now.

I'm working with Genjix to spice up the new lite GUI.

New style


Old style


You can test out the new style in the 'new-layout' branch on Gitorious. I'm mostly wondering if it renders the same across all OS's. The reference screenshot was taken on OSX.

phew, on first look I thought it was the other way around. good thing it's not Wink

Looks like there's been a nice surge of Electrum downloads in the last 48 hours...
Does anyone know if we've been mentioned somewhere? An article or blog post perhaps?
