Hi Mark

Unless you've done something very odd, Snow Leopard binaries should be compatible with Mavericks (and Yosemite, too, when you get to try that).

Hi Yamei,
                If you're on OS X version 10.9.3, then I guess you're on Mavericks, not Snow Leopard ( https://www.apple.com/uk/osx/ ).
 
Therefore, I guess you will need to download the source code and recompile it, since I don't know that Snow Leopard binaries are compatible with Mavericks. (Probably not, judging from all the re-compiling that I seem to have done recently). (Does anyone know better?)
 
See below for instructions from http://xray.bmc.uu.se/usf/ for recompiling, although under OS X 10.6.

The distribution kit can be found here : Distribution_kit

Organisation of the distribution kit

35 programs are available, and each has its own directory with the same name as the program, under the parent directory 'usf'. In the top-level 'usf' directory there is a shell script called 'make_all.csh', and big surprise, if you execute that file it will will build all the programs, leaving executables in both the programs' own subdirectories and also in the collective directory 'usf/bin'. 

Building under OS X

The package has been built under Mac OS X v10.6 using the gfortran compiler. The kit is reported to work under 10.7 Lion, but Xcode 4.1 needs to be installed.
Thanks to Jacques-Philippe Colletier for the Lion executables.

In order to build yourself you will need to install XCODE which can be downloaded from http://developer.apple.com/technology/xcode.html, and gfortran which can be found here http://www.macresearch.org/gfortran-leopard. You will also find a gfortran dmg file in the distribution.
Follow the instructions that come with these installation packages.
To be able to download these packages, you will have to register as an Apple Developer.
Then type "make_all.csh" in the downloaded USF directory.

Hi all,

I’m trying to install a copy of moleman2 for my new Mac. (the version is 10.9.3).  while I copy the osx_moleman2 from xutil directory I got the following message: The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data in “osx_moleman2” can’t be read or written.
(Error code -36)
Could you tell me how to solve this problem?
Thank you so much!
Best wishes!
