If you don't have Java installed, you may be asked to install it. Double click one of the Mesquite_Starter icons to start Mesquite.Mesquite_Starter_INSTRUCTIONS-macOS.txt.Its contents should be approximately as follows: Drag this Mesquite_Folder to your hard drive (e.g., your Applications folder). If the downloaded file doesn't mount into a disk image automatically, double click it to mount.Download the latest version of Mesquite from the Mesquite Github repository.First, however, you may want to take from Mesquite_Folder/mesquite any third party packages (e.g., PDAP, TreeSetViz) before deleting the directory. If you have an older version of Mesquite, you may want to delete it (by deleting Mesquite_Folder), so as to avoid getting confused as to what version of Mesquite is starting up.(Java 1.8 is also called Java 8.) Mesquite may or may not run on older systems.

System requirements: Mac OS X 10.10 or higher, with Java 1.8 or higher required.
