RetroCPLD for macOS (Intel)
==========================

This legacy build is for Intel-based Macs running macOS 10.15 or later. It is
an unsigned command-line application distributed directly by Retrotroniks.

Installation
------------

1. Open Terminal and change to the folder containing rcpld.

2. Remove the macOS download quarantine attribute and make the program
   executable:

       xattr -d com.apple.quarantine rcpld
       chmod +x rcpld

3. Install it in /usr/local/bin:

       sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/bin
       sudo mv rcpld /usr/local/bin/

4. Confirm the installation:

       rcpld --license-status

The free LIMITED edition works without a license. To install a purchased FULL
license:

       rcpld --install-license /path/to/retrocpld.license

Then confirm that FULL mode is active:

       rcpld --license-status

Basic use
---------

       rcpld design.rcpld

A successful compile writes design.jed beside the source file.

RetroCPLD creates JEDEC files but does not program the physical device. Use a
programmer compatible with the selected GAL or CPLD.
