How can I run the command-line programs on macOS?

When you're using the MKVToolNix disk image I provide, you can run the command-line programs while the disk image is mounted. All of the programs that are part of the MKVToolNix package are located in the disk image. You can run the programs as follows:

/Volumes/MKVToolNix-VERSION/MKVToolNix-VERSION.app/Contents/MacOS/PROGRAM ARGUMENTS

Replace VERSION, PROGRAM and ARGUMENTS as appropriate. For example, if you want to run mkvinfo 48.0.0 in summary mode on a file the command-line would be:

/Volumes/MKVToolNix-48.0.0/MKVToolNix-48.0.0.app/Contents/MacOS/mkvinfo -s yourfile.mkv
