Requirements
Chimera runs on Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger), 10.5 (Leopard), and 10.6 (Snow Leopard),but not on older versions of Mac OS X.
A X11 server must be installed for Chimera to start. For 10.4, we recommend Apple's X server (X11).It is reliable and provides hardware OpenGL acceleration. For 10.5 and 10.6, we recommend getting a newer version of the X11 serverfrom the XQuartz projectbecause the graphics support is much better(although XQuartz won't support Mac OS X 10.6 until version 2.4.1 comes out).
X11 comes with Mac OS X as an optional component(standard location /Applications/Utilities/X11).See the Mac OS X 10.4,Mac OS X 10.5,or Mac OS X 10.6 instructions below.
Installing X11 on Mac OS 10.4 (Tiger)
If you had X11 installed on OS X 10.3 and upgraded to 10.4,it should still be installed.If you bought a new Mac or did a fresh install of 10.4,X11 is not installed by default.To see if X11 is installed properly, try runningX11.app in /Applications/Utilities.If the application is missing or does not run, you will needto install it by the following procedure:- insert the 10.4 installation disc,
- double-click onOptional Installs.mpkgat the top level,
- get to the Installation Type step,
- expand the Applications section,
- select X11, and
- click Install.
When you are using a native Mac application (not X windows)and then click on a menu within the Chimera window the mouse click doesnot bring up the menu. It just activates the Chimera window and anothermouse click is needed to show the menu. To make this work with a singlemouse click, use the Mac X server wm_click_through preferenceby typing the following command in a Mac Terminal window:Normally Mac OS X swallows window-activating mouse events. This preferencecauses a window-activating mouse click on an X window to also be processedby the application.
X11 must be restarted after any of these settings are changed.The settings are saved in your ~/Library/Preferences directory, so they will apply to future sessions.Reissuing the commands with false instead of truewill restore the default preference settings.
Installing X11 on Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
If you had X11 installed on OS X 10.4 and upgraded to 10.5,it should still be installed.If you bought a new Mac with 10.5,X11 is installed by default.If you did a fresh install of 10.5,X11 is not installed by default — you will needto install it by the following procedure:Mac X11 App
- insert the 10.5 installation disc,
- go into the Optional Installs folder
- double-click on Optional Installs.mpkg
- get to the Installation Type step,
- expand the Applications section,
- select X11, and
- finish the installation procedure
- do a software update to get the latest version
Note that if you have a one-button mouse, the X11 provided with10.5 does not have three-button emulation on by default, which will make it impossible to translate and scale structures with the mouse.To turn on three-button emulation, do this:
- click on the X11 icon (it should show up in the dock when you start Chimera)
- open the X11 menu from the menubar at the top of the screen
- choose the Preferences... entry
- in the resulting dialog choose the Input tab
- enable the Emulate three button mouse option

X11 must be restarted after any of these settings are changed.The settings are saved in your ~/Library/Preferences directory, so they will apply to future sessions.Reissuing the commands with false instead of truewill restore the default preference settings.
Exposé
If some of your mouse buttons activate Exposé functions,you will likely want to use the Exposé category of System Preferencesto make those buttons available for Chimera functions.
Installing X11 on Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard)
See the Mac OS X 10.5 instructions.
Apple X11
Two X11 preference settings control the automatic closing of the X11 server.Turn it on by typing the following command in a Mac Terminal window:And you control the timeout, in seconds,by typing the following command in a Mac Terminal window:

Possible Problems Downloading Chimera
If you experience difficulty downloading the distribution, try thislinkas a simple test to see if the size of the Chimera distributionis causing problems.The link should download a small Python program to your computer. The onlydifference between this and the Chimera distribution download is thesize of the file, so if the link works then something in your environmentis blocking the downloading of very large files.
If this test download does not work, then something in your environmentis blocking the download of any binary file (the download is sent usingthe http content type of 'application/octet-stream').
You can try downloading the Chimera distribution to a different computeror from a different network that you are sure does not make use of aproxy web server.
Installation
To install Chimera, open the disk image file you downloaded.This will put the Chimera application on your desktop.This may have happened automatically when you downloaded.
If more than one person will be using Chimera, the Applications folderis a good place to put it. Moving it to that folder requires administratorprivileges. If it is only for your use, putting it in your home Applicationsfolder or leaving it on the desktop are reasonable choices.
Removal
To remove Chimera, just drag it to the trash.
Starting Chimera
The usual method of starting Chimera is by double-clicking the icon.If you want to start it from the command-line(e.g., you want to run more than one chimera at a time),use the following executable:The DISPLAY environment variable must be set and the X servermust be running for Chimera to start.Starting Chimera (versions 1.2304 and newer) will automatically start the X server if it is not already running.

[edit]Getting X11 for your Mac
You can find X11 in the Applications/Utilities folder. If you do not have it installed, here is how to get it:
- If you have Mac OS X 10.3.x or 10.4.x, the X11 package is included on your Mac OS X installation CDs/DVD. It may be pre-installed on new Macs.
- Mac OS X 10.3.x: The X11User.pkg is on Disc 3 of the Mac OS X Install CD set
- Mac OS X 10.4.x: The X11User.pkg is located in the Optional Packages folder of the Mac OS X Install DVD
Mac Os X X11
- If you have Mac OS X 10.3.x, you can download X11 from Apple: http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/x11formacosx.html
- This version will not work on Mac OS X 10.4.x
Important! if you upgraded from 10.3 to 10.4 and had X11 installed, you will need to manually upgrade X11 using the 10.4 DVD, as this is not a part of the standard upgrade.
- For all versions of Mac OS X there is XDarwin: http://xdarwin.orgplease remember Problems with FTP and Safari
- For easier installation of XDarwin, try Fink : http://fink.sourceforge.net
- To make XDarwin look more Mac-like, there is OroborOSX: http://oroborosx.sourceforge.net (You need XDarwin to use this)
[edit]Spotlight Integration
If you use Mac OS X 10.4.x, you can add Spotlight support for OpenOffice.org and OpenDocument files by downloading and installing NeoLight.
