Fink

September 12th, 2002 by Hen

Having upgraded OS X, I’m no longer tied to the MacGIMP I bought. This was stopping me from being able to easily install Fink, so now it’s gone, Fink is installed. It’s wonderful. A great concept, and appears to work.

I’m holding off grabbing anything which will suck down X, but I’m hopeful that I can start to get important apps like gnumeric, w3m, expect and gnucash. And freeciv!!

And then I’ll be one step closer to my desired OS, Microsoft Linux. Or Linux with a fully working Wine. Or Max OS X. A few choice MS apps that work well, and a host of Linux apps that work great. I’ve been missing the Linux apps on the Mac, so now I get to enjoy again.

    Did you ever manage to get gnucash to work? I’m trying with the latest fink, to no avail.
