[esp-r] Compiling on MacOS 26.5+

[achim.geissler]

Hi all,

after some time, I wanted to update my ESP-r version on my M2 Mac w/ MacOS 26.5 (soon .6) to the current latest, 13.3.18 from May 2025.

Compiling was possible after quite a struggle, however, there seems to be a problem with the “update_notes.txt” which is downloaded at startup to check if the most recent version is installed. As far as I could see, an (MacOS) “EOF” or similar is inserted prior to the 13.3.18 changes listing and this leads to an error "EMENU: EOF detected, error in input command.” which itself possibly makes firing up of X broken.

Who - currently - is managing the ESP-r code? I would be interested in getting the 13.3.17 archive (my latest successful installation was 13.3.16) to make sure there is no gap in my source tree.

Also, it would be nice if somebody at ESRU could check the current “update_notes.txt” and make sure no undesired characters inadvertently made their way into it.

Thanks.
Best
Achim
