IMP 2.0.1 Mac installer

IMP is currently supported on 64-bit Intel Macs running OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) or above.

Download the installer

(Newer Macs may complain that the installer is from an unknown developer. This is expected; simply right click on the installer, and select "Open" from the menu, rather than double-clicking on it.)

Signature

Please check the installer package against the MD5SUM file to make sure it has not been tampered with (open a Terminal window, change into the directory where you downloaded the .dmg file, run "md5 foo.dmg" where foo.dmg is the name of the file you downloaded, and compare the output to the content of the MD5SUM file.)

The MD5SUM file in turn is signed with this GPG key; you can check to make sure this has also not been tampered with using the GnuPG software.

Installation and getting started

The installer will install IMP in the /usr/local/ directory on your Mac.

The IMP Python libraries are automatically set up to run with the default version of Python on your Mac. To run an IMP Python script called foo.py, simply run python foo.py from a Terminal window in the directory containing the script. (If you have multiple versions of Python installed on your system, you may need to force use of the default system version by typing /usr/bin/python rather than just python.)
