Body: <p>I need an IDE for LEGO Mindstorms on my Mac, but I only found a few for Linux and Windows but not for Mac. I found NeXT Tools, but the newest version isn't compatible with Yosemite. If I execute it, it will throw an error, so I need some compiler for Yosemite.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>

  I need an IDE for LEGO Mindstorms on my Mac, but I only found a few for Linux and Windows but not for Mac. I found NeXT Tools, but the newest version isn't compatible with Yosemite. If I execute it, it will throw an error, so I need some compiler for Yosemite.
  
  Thanks

  It is possible to use XCode. You need to download the [NXC compiler](http://bricxcc.sourceforge.net/nbc/release/index.html) (the linked page says NBC, but it included NXC as well). Then, write a Makefile that calls the NXC compiler.
  
  If the compiler does not work on Yosemite, the source code is available from that link as well.
