I did a long debug and managed to get the plugin working on macOS.

Specifically in the aceWrapper function the process must be called with

Code:

shell=True

.

In addition you have to set the PATH variable to include

Code:

/usr/local/bin

.

In addition you have to refer to Ace with the full path, in my case

Code:

/usr/local/bin/ace

Finally you have to enter the arguments not as a list, but as text:

Code:

" ".join(args)

The complete command then becomes:

Code:

process = Popen("PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin; "+" ".join(args), stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE, shell=True)
