[Simh] simh OS X missing dependencies with brew packages

[Mark Pizzolato]

Ahh… Great!

Not being an OS X/HomeBrew user, I searched for it with the wrong command.

Thanks.

It seems to be there already:

It's part of homebrew-core, so you shouldn't need to "tap" anything special to get this:

If the "install" command fails for you, what does the "search" command give?
