[daip] Mac aips

[Lawrence Rudnick]

Hi Eric -

Just got a Mac for first time in 20 years and am installing AIPS.  Went 
pretty smoothly.  Several problems that perhaps you can help out with.  
The only show stopper is number 2.

1. I didn't have a .profile set up, so I went to root area, ran 
LOGIN.SH, but somehow "aips" isn't defined ( I don't remember where 
that's supposed to get defined).  So I simply executed the command below 
and started up fine.

2. TV is a problem, see error message below.  I'm running an external 
display and laptop display (mirrored).

3. TPMON had problems. I have no tape drives. All I want is ability to 
read/write FITS area. That is working fine, so I could just ignore the 
TPMON messages.
  I did not edit the /etc/services file because I was going to be using 
local.  At the bottom, I list the default (current) /etc/services 
entries in the

thanks!  Larry
