[Chimera-users] Sudden Chimera issues with OSX Mojave?

[Neil Rzechorzek]

That's extremely useful Geoff, thank you - did not know about this!

I might give this a go to see if it has any effect on our systems.  Will 
report back if I go ahead (I'm just about managing with the daily build 
at present, though it has now crashed on me a few times...).

Many thanks,

Neil
