Unfortunately we don't want to make do without the -M flag because it is what produces thread-safe code. I'm not sure why rpcgen on mac does not support this flag - perhaps too old version of rpcgen?

Thanks for the fixes.

I'm already running Debian in a VM, in bridged mode, on my Mac.  :) But my SSD does not have enough space for yet another VM. :(

I suppose the answer is to uninstall the deb and just install from the Github source, if snap doesn't work (for whatever reason).

There's definitely something wrong with the way the snap version is working. I just installed a fresh Debian stretch in a VirtualBox VM, did
apt-get install snapd
then
snap install lxi-tools
which all seemed to work OK.
But then any of the commands
lxi
lxitools
lxi-tools
just gives me "command not found".

Write once run anywhere is a noble goal - but seems rather too fragile...

These are the exact steps I do on Debian 9.3:

--- Code: ---$ lsb_release -d

$ snap --version
snap    2.29.4.2
snapd   2.29.4.2
series  16
debian  9
kernel  4.9.0-4-amd64
$ su -
$ snap install lxi-tools --edge
$ lxi --version
lxi v1.16
$ lxi-tools.lxi --version
lxi v1.16
$ snap aliases
Command        Alias  Notes
lxi-tools.lxi  lxi    -

--- End code ---

At least it is a goal :)

:HCOPy:SDUMp:DATA:FORMat BMP|JPEG|PNG
:HCOPy:SDUMp:DATA:FORMat?

--- End quote ---

Exactly - that is the command I added to fix the format for the DG to force it to BMP. I'm wondering if the same trick needs to be applied to any of the other rigol plugins.
