#    Open a terminal.
#    Enter the following command to install homebrew:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

#    Enter password for the user of this terminal session.
#    Let it get through the whole install.
#    Then execute the following two commaneds:

echo 'eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"' >> ~/.zprofile

eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"

#    When you get your prompt back, enter the following
#    command to install SDL2:

brew install SDL2

#    Then install boost:

brew install boost

#    If you downloaded from

https://laserboy.org/code/LaserBoy_Current.zip

#    the zip file is in your Downloads directory
#    and if you unzip it there, you might want to
#    move it to your Desktop so that it's easier to find.

mv /Users/[your_id]/Downloads/LaserBoy/  /Users/[your_id]/Desktop/

#    Now you are ready to navigate, in your terminal, to the
#    LaserBoy folder where this text file should be.

cd /Users/[your_id]/Desktop/LaserBoy/

#    Enter the ls (list directory) command to verify
#    you can see the files and folders inside of your
#    LaserBoy folder.

ls

#    Now change directory into the src folder:

cd src

#    Hit ls again to verify you can see all the
#    cpp, hpp and Makefiles.

ls

#    For intel x86 cpu issue the command:

time make -f Makefile.osx

#    for M1 cpu issue the command:

time make -f Makefile.mm1

#    and wait for it to build.
#    If you want to build the source code again from
#    scratch you can do this:

make -f Makefile.osx clean

#    or

make -f Makefile.mm1 clean

#    Then do:

time make -f Makefile.osx

#    or

time make -f Makefile.mm1

#    again.

#    When it's done it will probably run the executable.
#    If it opens up just hit [Esc] until the screen turns
#    solid red and then hit y to say yes to terminate LaserBoy.
#    Now cd back to the parent directory.

cd ../

#    When you want to run the LaserBoy application you
#    have to open a terminal, cd in the terminal to the
#    LaserBoy directory and issue this command:

./LaserBoy 1600 980

#    or whatever size in pixels you want LaserBoy to be
#    when it opens a window. You should adjust these
#    numbers to fit your screen resolution. You don't want
#    any part of the LB window to be off the screen.
#    Allow for the window title bar and borders to fit
#    within your screen resolution. The area in pixels you
#    give to the LaserBoy executable are the size of the
#    graphics context inside of the window it opens.

#    You will notice that LB does not respond to any
#    mouse clicks! It is keyboard driven.
#    It is essentially a console application that controls
#    the contents of a high resolution color raster display
#    (the contents of the window).
