Hi,

> It compiles very easily, just install 

I second that. Once xcode and homebrew are installed you can prepare and run 
Oberon 2013 like this (verified on OS X 10.11 (El Capitan)):

% cd /tmp

# get dependency SDL2
% brew install sdl2

# get Peter de Wachter RISC emulator source and compile
% git clone https://github.com/pdewacht/oberon-risc-emu.git
% cd oberon-risc-emu
% make

# get Obeon SD-Card disk image prepared by Paul Reed
% curl http://www.paddedcell.com/projectoberon/RISCimg.zip >RISCimg.zip
% unzip RISCimg.zip && rm RISCimg.zip

# Run Oberon 2013 
% ./risc RISC.img

Have fun.

Regards,
	Ulrich
