Peters tools for mac

Hi
I’m wondering if it’s possible to install Peters tools on mac (Rhino WIP)

No, unfortunately not, all of the scripts are written with Rhinoscript which doesn’t run on Mac. They would need to be translated into Python to run on Mac…

@Helvetosaur or RhinoCommon?

Yeah, would work fine as well, simply that it is MUCH easier to “translate” a script written in VB Rhinoscript to Python/rhinoscriptsyntax, a fair amount of it can be done just with Find/Replace in a text editor. Using RhinoCommon would require a complete re-write.

i wonder if there could be a translator which speaks those languages then, reading the syntax rewriting it into the newly required one. rules, vocabulary (library), some work, idk just bored thinking.

I saw a project presented at Acadia in something like 2011 that was trying to do this. Umm, here it is…

Don’t know where they are with that now, I assume since the page hasn’t been updated since 2014 that maybe interest fizzled…
