Stixbox on Scilab 6 for macOS

The popular statistics toolbox STIXBOX for Scilab cannot be installed via ATOMS on Scilab 6.0.x or 6.1.x on Apple’s macOS. Binaries of the dependent toolboxes

• Distfun
• Linear Algebra (linalg)

are not provided for Mac by the maintainer and developer, resp.

To solve the problem for Macintosh users I compiled both toolboxes on macOS 12.14 (Mojawe). It can easily installed via ATOMS after downloading by typing:

atomsInstall("~/Downloads/xxx_6.0_6.1_bin.x86_64.darwin.zip")

in Scilab’s console. Then Stixbox can be installed via

atomsInstall("stixbox")
