## Installing on macOS
|
|
|
|
The CI system builds the package on macOS Big Sur and should run on systems as
|
|
"old" as Mojave. It may run on earlier versions of macOS, but that has not
|
|
been tested.
|
|
|
|
Starting with version 20210203-095643-70a364eb, WezTerm is a Universal binary
|
|
with support for both Apple Silicon and Intel hardware.
|
|
|
|
[:simple-apple: Download for macOS :material-tray-arrow-down:]({{ macos_zip_stable }}){ .md-button }
|
|
[:simple-apple: Nightly for macOS :material-tray-arrow-down:]({{ macos_zip_nightly }}){ .md-button }
|
|
|
|
1. Download <a href="{{ macos_zip_stable }}">Release</a>.
|
|
2. Extract the zipfile and drag the `WezTerm.app` bundle to your `Applications` folder.
|
|
3. First time around, you may need to right click and select `Open` to allow launching
|
|
the application that you've just downloaded from the internet.
|
|
3. Subsequently, a simple double-click will launch the UI.
|
|
4. To use wezterm binary from a terminal emulator, like `wezterm ls-fonts` you'll need to add the location to the wezterm binary folder that exists _inside_ the WezTerm.app, to your environment's $PATH value. For example, to add it to your `~/.zshrc` file, and assuming your WezTerm.app was installed to `/Applications`, add:
|
|
```sh
|
|
PATH="$PATH:/Applications/WezTerm.app/Contents/MacOS"
|
|
export PATH
|
|
```
|
|
5. Configuration instructions can be [found here](../config/files.md)
|
|
|
|
## Homebrew
|
|
|
|
WezTerm is available for [brew](https://brew.sh/) users:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ brew install --cask wezterm
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you'd like to use a nightly build:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ brew install --cask wezterm@nightly
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
!!! note
|
|
For users who have previously used the cask named `wezterm-nightly`,
|
|
homebrew has started issuing warnings: `Warning: Cask
|
|
homebrew/cask-versions/wezterm-nightly was renamed to wezterm@nightly`. We
|
|
recommend that you use `brew uninstall wezterm-nightly` to uninstall the
|
|
previously installed version, and then reinstall the new version using the
|
|
command above.
|
|
|
|
to upgrade to a newer nightly (normal `brew upgrade` will not upgrade it!):
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ brew upgrade --cask wezterm@nightly --no-quarantine --greedy-latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
!!! note
|
|
The `--greedy-latest` option in Homebrew forces the latest version of a
|
|
formula to be installed, even if a version satisfying the formula's
|
|
requirements is already installed. This can be useful when you want to
|
|
ensure you have the most up-to-date version of a package, regardless of
|
|
whether an older version meets the current dependency requirements.
|
|
|
|
## MacPorts
|
|
|
|
WezTerm is also available via [MacPorts](https://ports.macports.org/port/wezterm/summary):
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ sudo port selfupdate
|
|
$ sudo port install wezterm
|
|
```
|
