While installing the current version of AIPS (31DEC18) on an iMac Pro, after installing with no apparent problem, I get the following error during startup:...XAS *** Using shared memory for speed ***...XAS: Using screen 2550 height 1318 max grey level 8191 in 16 grey-scale memoriesShared memory id failure: Invalid argumentI have edited the /etc/services and /etc/sysctl.conf file as per the install instructions. Might be a simple typo but I didn't see it - I suspect High Sierra has a different format for one or both of these files?
