The login dialog pops up, but the "Connect" button is grayed out. The dialog message reads "Awaiting product ID and version" Entering login information and password does not help. Running macOS Sierra Version 10.12 2.3Ghz Intel i7, 16G I am able to connect on a windows box, no problem How can I get IQFeed to work on a Mac?

You will need to do so through your Charting Software. IQFeed does not have a interface so it will not connect by itself hence the grey "Connect" button.

(I'm an API customer) the terminal command: "open -a IQFeed" doesn't work. On windows the ShellExecute(); function works from code, but how do I do this on mac/linux from code?
