For those who can't build and install on their own, a good option is to use a port management system like MacPorts. (Unfortunately, their version of XBoard is 4.4.3; I've put in an update request.)


MacPorts version of XBoard updated to 4.6.0.

MacPorts is great, but on my system it needs so much additional software to build xboard 4.6.0 ... this takes ages.

$ sudo port install xboard
---> Computing dependencies for xboard
---> Dependencies to be installed: xorg-libXaw groff ghostscript jbig2dec libpaper xorg-libXt netpbm jasper psutils xorg-libXmu xpm

Past xboard versions compiled and worked on the Mac without any of these tools, using the traditional configure & make.

All the best,
Max


This version can be easily built on Mac OS X using configure and make. But for those who don't know how to do such things, I requested that MacPorts update their XBoard package to 4.6, which they promptly did.

You are correct about the dependencies, though many of these should exist as prebuilt archives with no compiling needed.

Direct dependencies:

Code:
~] port echo depof:xboard
libtool                         
xorg-libXaw
