A collection of Homebrew Casks & Formulae for old or unsupported macOS (Currently just Monterey).
The idea behind this Tap is to provide installers for some tools or old abandonware. Whether through forked maintained alternative versions of those tools, or by providing a version-pinned old installer.
Think of this like the "Island of Misfit Toys" for macOS software that has been made hard to install by Apple's Planned Obsolescence, Homebrew maintainer's over-eager deprecations, community abandonment the Hype Cycle's "Trough of Disillusionment", and other such emergent scenarios from community behaviors.
brew install lyraphase/right2repair/<cask>
Or brew tap lyraphase/right2repair and then brew install --cask <cask>
or brew install <formula>.
brew help, man brew or check Homebrew's documentation.
First, make sure you have installed homebrew and
homebrew-cask if you haven't yet.
Then, run the following in your command-line:

Note: For info run:

Once the tap is installed, you can install the Casks!

brew outdated --cask --greedy
To check if a single Cask is outdated, (e.g.: rancher-machine):
brew outdated --greedy rancher-machine
To upgrade a single Cask (e.g.: rancher-machine):
brew upgrade --greedy rancher-machine
To upgrade an installer manual Cask (e.g.: soundid-reference):
brew reinstall --cask soundid-reference
To upgrade all outdated Casks on your system, run:
brew outdated --cask --quiet --greedy | xargs brew upgrade --cask
