 Hi Saeid, lots of ways to
 install on Mac OS-X.
 
 Last
 time I installed natively (November 2015 on El Capitan)
 I had to get cvs (not 100% needed, but useful
 if you like to get updates)
 gfortran, and
 xcode.  So instructions are:
 
 - put cvs in /usr/local/bin from:
   http://jwooten37830.com/blog/?p=325
   http://jwooten37830.com/usr_4.2.zip
 
 # Install gfortran 5.2
 # https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GFortranBinaries
 # http://coudert.name/software/gfortran-5.2-Yosemite.dmg
 
 # Install Xcode from App
 Store
 xcode-select --install
 
 # Now you can use cvs to get
 code and run one of the verification experiments.
 # Instructions below assume you use sh or
 bash:
 export CVSROOT=':pserver:cvsanon at mitgcm.org:/u/gcmpack'
 cvs login # enter the CVS password:
 "cvsanon"
 cvs co MITgcm_code
 cvs co MITgcm/verification/testreport
 cvs co
 MITgcm/verification/tutorial_held_suarez_cs
 cvs co
 MITgcm/verification/global_ocean.cs32x15
 cd
 MITgcm/verification
 ./testreport -j 4 -t
 global_ocean.cs32x15

 More recently, I was
 introduced to the wonderful world of virtual machines by one
 of the MIT czars.
 In case you want to go the
 virtual machine route, here is instructions for a *buntu
 installation:
 
 # Set up a
 Lubuntu 16.04 virtual machine under VirtualBox
 #   Get VirtualBox from https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
 #   Get
 lubuntu-16.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/GetLubuntu
 #   Start VirtualBox and set-up
 virtual machine
 #     New
 #       Name: lubuntu-16.04
 #       Type: Linux
 #       Version: Ubuntu
 (64-bit)
 #       Memory size:

 #       Create a
 virtual hard disk now

 #     Start
 
 # Install Lubuntu 16.04
 #   Download Updates; Install

 # Packages needed
 for VirtualBox to run smoothly
 sudo apt
 install virtualbox-guest-dkms
 sudo adduser
 heracles vboxsf
 sudo reboot
 
 # Extra packages needed to get
 and run MITgcm
 sudo apt install cvs
 sudo apt install gfortran
 sudo
 apt install libopenmpi-dev # needed for parallel run of
 MITgcm
 
 # Next you can load
 and run MITgcm, e.g.,
 export
 CVSROOT=':pserver:cvsanon at mitgcm.org:/u/gcmpack'
 cvs login # enter the CVS password:
 "cvsanon"
 cvs co MITgcm_code
 cvs co MITgcm/verification/testreport
 cvs co

 cvs co

 cd

 ./testreport -j 4 -t
 global_ocean.cs32x15
 ./testreport -j 4 -mpi
 -t global_ocean.cs32x15
