This PR addresses a long standing issue with multiprocessing in Mac OS. The multiprocessing module does not work properly in Jupyter notebooks on Mac OS, which requires the multiprocess module instead. Unfortunately this is a module that has to be manually installed (e.g., with
pip install multiprocess), but without it notebooks tend to hang with no explanation.While applying the fixes I noticed that Tutorial-Start_to_Finish-BSSNCurvilinear-Two_BHs_Collide-Psi4_new_way.ipynb is not working properly on Mac OS X either, but I could not quickly fix it. I will attempt later.
