All that other stuff is for other types of systems, just ignore it. For macOS you just find XEphem.app in Finder and double-click it. That¡¯s it, really.
Well, you do need to first install .
Elwood, I did as
you suggested and still no juice; I suspect I am loading thing
in the wrong places or some such; as a clue, I provide the
following show of a terminal window contents:

I am not very
computer literate and the directions on installing and README
seem a bit sparse for an ignorant cuss like me.
It acts the same
whether I try to run the app from the Download folder, or the
path listed above...
Would there be any
instructions that are very explicit and step by step for folks
like me?
Thanks!
Hi
David,
I suspect it
is an xquartz problem, not xephem. I'm having no
problem using the standard xephem??and
xquartz??on?macOS
10.14.3. I suggest you remove all vestiges of
both and install fresh.
