OSX instructions to setup MCP workspace fail at step 6

[Gatinh0]

[MCP940.zip] Minecraft client 1.12 & server 1.12

These instructions don't work: https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Mods/Creating_mods/Setting_up_the_MCP_workspace

 

To verify I'm in the right directory I input into Terminal "open ." and it opens the MCP folder I'm working with, so I'm certain I'm in the right directory, and the files I'm trying to work with (updatemcp.sh and decompile.sh) are both there.

Fatal error occurs at the next part of step 6. These instructions "Then type, bash updatemcp.sh." returns the following error:

env: python2: No such file or directory

 

Any idea how to get this step to work? This step doesn't work, and neither will skipping this step and trying to decompile without the update, still returns the same python2 error.

 

Any ideas how to get this update and decompile to work?

 

My suspicion is the error is in the .sh itself, in which case the downloaded shells need to be fixed.

Respectfully, this forum is for Forge modding.  There is no need to use MCP directly if you are using Forge.  I'll note  that I do all my MC modding on OS X, and aside from having to endure the occasional gratuitous denigrating comment from Lex about how Macs are garbage, it works great.
