Hello Again,

I managed to do it both by compile and through brew now.

Open Babel 2.4.1 -- Oct 12 2016 -- 00:37:03


Thanks for your support. I have one more question which is not a critical
one so I ask it here.
The source code or python code of confab is available ?

Thanks again and have a good day
Cheers,
Mohammad
