Good progress has been made on creating a reliable App bundle for Octave on Mac OS X. Approaches using [http://www.macports.org MacPorts] and [http://brew.sh Homebrew]  have been developed. Information on a Macports approach is available [[Create_a_MacOS_X_App_Bundle_Using_MacPorts|here]], and information is also averrable for the [[Create_a_MacOS_X_App_Bundle_Using_Homebrew|Homebrew approach]]. As the Homebrew approach provides a simpler solution, the Macports approach has been abandoned.

A App bundle for Octave on Mac OS X is not presently available, but should become available soon. For those eager to install the [[Create_a_MacOS_X_App_Bundle_Using_Homebrew|Homebrew App bundle]], creating the App bundle is largely automated and can be accomplished with minimal technical expertise.
