A note about compiling
Depending on your OS version, the PERL statement in Makefile may fail. For my 32bit iMac, the line remains as the original. For my 64 bit system, 'swift' becomes 'swift-5.0'
PERL cp_kegs_libs kegsmac /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/lib/swift
or
PERL cp_kegs_libs kegsmac /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/lib/swift-5.0
