=== Download and Install the Libraries ===

In order to build Freesurfer, the following prerequisite software will need to be downloaded and installed on your OSX system:

 * [[https://download.qt.io/archive/qt/4.7/qt-mac-opensource-4.7.4.dmg|Qt 4.7.4]]
 * [[http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GFortranBinaries#MacOS|gfortran 4.8.2]]
 * [[https://www.macports.org/install.php|MacPorts]] (for installing gcc)
 * [[http://xquartz.macosforge.org/downloads/SL/XQuartz-2.7.5.dmg|XQuartz 2.7.5]] (OSX versions 10.9 and lower)
 * [[http://xquartz.macosforge.org/downloads/SL/XQuartz-2.7.6.dmg|XQuartz 2.7.6]] (OSX versions 10.10 and higher)

''IMPORTANT: After you install Qt, you must delete line 320 from the file'' {{{/Library/Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Headers/qglobal.h}}}'', the line that says "#warning "This version of Mac OS X is unsupported""''. Next, install Xcode Command Line Tools my typing the following on the command line:

{{{
$> xcode-select --install
}}}

After Xcode has been installed, we need to install gcc v4.4.7 using MacPorts:

{{{
$> sudo port install gcc44
$> sudo port select --set gcc mp-gcc44
$> gcc --version
gcc (MacPorts gcc44 4.4.7_10) 4.4.7

}}}

Download and install the prebuilt package of open-source libraries:

{{{
$> curl -O ftp://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pub/dist/fs_supportlibs/prebuilt/lion/MacOSX_Lion_Packages.tar.gz
$> sudo mkdir -p /usr/pubsw/packages

''If you are at the NMR Center and already have {{{/usr/pubsw/packages}}} mounted on your system then you can skip this step.''

Freesurfer builds against a set of open-sourced libraries. Special bundles of this open-source code are available on the [[ftp://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pub/dist/fs_supportlibs/prebuilt|distribution site]]. Once you have downloaded the bundle, execute the following command to install them into the {{{/usr/pubsw/packages}}} directory:
 === Setup, Configure, Make ===
Determine the location you want Freesurfer to be installed. For example, in case case we will assume the user wants freesurfer to be installed in {{{/User/USER/freesurfer}}}. Type the following commands in the top-level Freesurfer directory (the directory that contains configure.in and all the mri_* and mris_* directories.)
Line 33: Line 64:
mkdir -p /usr/pubsw/packages
tar -C /usr/pubsw/packages -xzvf DownLoadedFileName.tar.gz
}}}

'''''NOTE:''' If you are building on a Lion or Mountain Lion platform (OSX 10.7 or 10.8) you MUST install qt4.7.4 on your system. This is an unfortunate consequence related to difficulties in building against the compiled version of Qt. Click the following link to download [[ftp://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pub/dist/fs_supportlibs/prebuilt/lion/qt-mac-opensource-4.7.4.dmg|qt-mac-opensource-4.7.4.dmg]] and install.''

You will also need gfortan. If this is not on your system, you can download it from here http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GFortranBinaries#MacOS

1. Get the Source Code

Users can download Freesurfer source code via the read-only git repo. A simple clone of the repo (187 Megs) is enough to perform a build of all freesurfer binaries. However, if a user wishes to perform full Freesurfer installation locally, he/she will need git-annex in order to download all the data files required for a full installation (6.6 Gigs). 

## Get the source code
$> git clone http://freesurfer.net/anonftp/pub/dist/freesurfer/repo/freesurfer.git

## Get data files (only required for full installation)
$> cd freesurfer
$> git annex get .

2. Download and Install the Libraries

In order to build Freesurfer, the following prerequisite software will need to be downloaded and installed on your OSX system:

IMPORTANT: After you install Qt, you must delete line 320 from the file /Library/Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Headers/qglobal.h, the line that says "#warning "This version of Mac OS X is unsupported"". Next, install Xcode Command Line Tools my typing the following on the command line: 

$> xcode-select --install

After Xcode has been installed, we need to install gcc v4.4.7 using MacPorts: 

$> sudo port install gcc44
$> sudo port select --set gcc mp-gcc44
$> gcc --version
gcc (MacPorts gcc44 4.4.7_10) 4.4.7

3. Set Your Path

$> export PATH=/usr/pubsw/packages/autotools/bin:$PATH

4. Setup, Configure, Make

Determine the location you want Freesurfer to be installed. For example, in case case we will assume the user wants freesurfer to be installed in /User/USER/freesurfer. Type the following commands in the top-level Freesurfer directory (the directory that contains configure.in and all the mri_* and mris_* directories.) 

$> ./setup_configure
