i’ve just installed ttfautohint and ttfautohintGUI
I’m runing Mac OS 10.13.6 (17G65)
As described on

I ran the installation via the Terminal app, using the suggested
brew install ttfautohint --with-qt5
About two weeks ago I was informed that the Homebrew maintainers
decided to no longer support packages with options like `--with-qt5'.
There was a small glitch in the ttfautohint recipe which they took as
an occasion to remove the option. For this reason, it does nothing,
and ttfautohintGUI won't be installed.
However, Cosimo Lupo recently set up a private tap that contains a
recipe for ttfautohinGUI. I haven't had time yet to look at and test
it by myself; he wrote me the following:
I just made this homebrew "tap" repository for our custom
ttfautohintGUI.rb formula:
https://github.com/anthrotype/homebrew-ttfautohint you can build/install it with this command:
$ brew install anthrotype/ttfautohint/ttfautohintGUI
Seems to be quite easy :-)
