[daip] AIPS on High Sierra - TV

[Lawrence Rudnick]

Eric - I just did a new AIPS 31DEC18 install on mac laptop running High 
Sierra, 10.13.6 .  I followed the El Capitan instructions.  A few little 
glitches, but seem to be straightened out.  However, getting error about 
shared memory that's keeping the TV from opening.  If i completely 
remove the sysctl.conf file i entered, get same error.  I also killed 
XQuartz and let it start itself automatically with aips.  Same problem.  
TEK message windows coming up fine.   Following is some info, you 
probably need more, so please just let me know. thanks.

bash-3.2$ grep AIPS /etc/services

ssslock         5002/tcp        SSSLOCK    # AIPS TV Lock
msgserv         5008/tcp        MSGSERV    # AIPS Message Server
