Doesnt Run on Mac OS Catalina

[Huddy Buddy]

Error:
'The application “TEXTREME” can’t be opened.'
I apologize for I am unable to provide any more details

The executable inside the app folder needs execution permissions
Fix:
chmod +x TEXTREME.app/Contents/MacOS/TEXTREME

Then open the app normally

@saulbensach I have tried that but it still doesn't work somehow — I used right-click open in TEXTREME.app/Contents/MacOS/TEXTREME, said it's ok to open and still get the same error 🤔

@lucaslsf The chmod +x think worked for me I'm using macOS Catalina 10.15.3, the thing is that you give +x permissions to Contents/MacOS/TEXTREME and then you open Textreme.app normally.
This worked for me, maybe opening it with open command brings some clue.

I'm a bit out of my dept here now, sorry.
Do you just go Terminal and chmod +x TEXTREME.app/Contents/MacOS/TEXTREME ?

[Saúl (Hyphen) Bensach]

@lucaslsf yes

[Lucas Morales]

Managed to make it work — just had to move the app and navigate to the /Applications folder in the terminal before using that command :)

Thanks @saulbensach

I was thinking about creating an issue but maybe I'll just ask first.
Can I brew install this ?
If not, what would be required to do so?

You can't because there's no textreme formula.
