All it says is "TunerPro and Mac." :)

Anyway, the answer is: not on purpose. You could use a virtual PC application to get it working.

I can tell you for sure that TunerPro will work with wine under FreeBSD (so it may with DarWine on a Mac), however, RT will not work: it gives an error about IO.SYS on startup (huh? IO.SYS under 2000/XP emulation?). I haven't been able to obtain any additional information about this error.

Try the build here:

tunerpro.net/beta/Builds/

With it, you shouldn't see the io.sys issue.

I tried it, no IO.SYS error, now I just need a good day to see if it will get data.

I'm using the CrossOver emulator on a MacBook (Intel Core Duo based). The app seems to start OK and loads A9L.XDF OK. The menus on the left side seem to come up with valid names for the scalars, functions, etc. However, 4 different A9L.bin and A3M1.bin files all seem to be full of either 0x7F or 0xFF. Is this a bin file format problem? Thanks in advance.

Never mind, I found the problem... the bin files I downloaded all start at 0x2000, no 0x0. Once I pad the file so that the 'FF FA ...' sequence is at 0x2000, everything looks good.

Thanks for a great tool!
