$${<some custom command>} is an interface to extract entries from the custom command hash table that -command builds. -command doesn’t care about readability; its game is to reduce the right hand side of : to the minimum length string that is still a legal gmic script. So, out goes comments and white space. The left hand side of : fits a regular expression somewhat like ^_*[a-zA-Z0-9_]+ *: (The emacs regular expression I use to find the beginning of command definitions in .gmic files). If I also didn’t care about comments and white space, then what $${} does is ideal. I don’t have to worry about what .gmic file defines a command or how to get it; if the command has been hashed, then I get a minimum string representation of the pipeline implementing it.
But if readability matters, you almost want a “-command_lite” version that doesn’t reduce the right hand side of a command definition, preserving white space and comments. You’d like to rewrite -command so that it doesn’t reduce pipeline definitions to the minimum length.
Unfortunately, G’MIC’s -command is a built-in, implemented in C++; you can’t directly adapt it. Nor does the G’MIC command line interpreter have a regular expression parser to find the beginning of command definitions inside of text text files, so a G’MIC script version of a -command_lite could be some work. I think if I wanted to write a “-command_lite” partial parser, I’d turn to Python and import regex and use it to block text files into command definitions, then not minimize the blocks. Of course, once I start in Python, I generally finish in Python. Good luck!
There is actually a command parse_cli that is used to parse the different commands and the associated documentation.
It is used for instance to generate the reference pages in the G’MIC website, as well as to print the help for a particular command, when typing gmic -h command.
It could be possible to add your own ‘output mode’ that fits your needs. Not easy, but doable.
Thanks, @KaRo. zart is “c-koi/zart” I would assume. Need to fix the following:

Thanks for the good starting point, well appreciated.
Nachtrag: Fixed by adding /opt/homebrew/lib/pkgconfig to PKG_CONFIG_PATH
Re “Dangerous to mix MacPorts and Homebrew IMHO.”. Yes, it sees to have become messy on my Mac and I will remove all packages from both, HB and MP, and will start over again.
Tried all with brew. gmic compiles nicely, however, gmic-qt only delivers an error

+ exit
I am using bash as the shell. Even the latest one on the Mac, but to no avail.
No idea, not tried with homebrew.
At least fftw3 is also in gmic used afaik. I don’t know anymore where I stuck with homebrew. It looked much simpler compared to macports, still…
I am using zsh since it has become the default shell.
Yes, MacPorts with bash too in my script, there should be no difference in sh and zsh for that. I’ll look into my building messages, perhaps I get a hint…
First, let see what the pure “make” is doing with “make -n”.
Do instead “make clean gimp gmic_qt zart”
AND most important do that all in ~/sw/gmic/src !!
I think Qt5 is not installed properly, qmake possibly missing
Here is the beginning of my build:

Ok, that is from gimp plugin, still no severe difference.
I am … This is what I am getting when I did a fresh start, removing the gmic-qt directory and cloning it from the repo.
Nachtrag: It seems that this error might be due to the cone environment installed. I have removed that one and at least I get some compilations now till it is stopped through

If I correct the error above, I get one more with head inconsistencies. Adding the /opt/homebrew/include and /opt/homebrew/lib to the Makefile options then finally allows to compile without errors and the gmic-qt is finally executing.
I could send you privately my crowded sh file with lots of trials. There is also one with clang++-mp-11!
Maybe you can improve something… e-mail please!
On my M1, gmic … samj_Barbouillage_Paint_Daub 2,2,100,0.2,1,4,1,0,8 … on a 24MP image takes about 15 minutes without OpenMP. With OpenMP and 8 threads, it takes about 3 minutes. The former is way too long and the latter still feels slow but is not compared to the former.
Thanks, all. To end the discussion for the time being regarding M1 support for gmic, here is the script that compiles gmic for M1 processors (and I would assume M2).

I am aware that the script is not optimised but it serves the purpose and on my 8 core system, it get a performance boost of about 5 to 6 as opposed to not using OpenMP.
I have tried quite a lot of things to get gmic-qt to use OpenMP but did not manage. So I will end the search for the time being.
