GUI for Apple Silicon

[isolated-matrix]

Hi there,

I was wondering whether it would be possible to compile the GUI version of Multiwfn on Apple Silicon Macs now that there is an ARM-native version of Dislin? I have been having trouble compiling it myself, so I wanted to know whether it was possible or not.

I also had issues, so didn't explore it further at this time. If you get it to work, we can proceed with adding support.

Thanks for the quick response!

To be honest, at this point I'm struggling to get past the cmake -B build etc part. Keep coming up with an error saying:

CMake Error at /opt/local/share/cmake-3.29/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:230 (message):
  Could NOT find OpenMP_C (missing: OpenMP_C_FLAGS OpenMP_C_LIB_NAMES)
Call Stack (most recent call first):

  /opt/local/share/cmake-3.29/Modules/FindOpenMP.cmake:581 (find_package_handle_standard_args)
  CMakeLists.txt:30 (find_package)

Whatever I try, I cannot get past it.

I will let you know if I make progress with the GUI build, though.

@isolated-matrix, you should use GCC, not AppleClang for building C part of Multiwfn. In MacOS gcc is alias for clang by default.
