Hi Martin,

homebrew no longer supports build options, so in order to build ttfautohint
with GUI with homebrew we had to make a separate, custom formula which is
not hosted on the homebrew-core (upstream) repo, but on a so-called
Homebrew Tap (i.e. a user's github repository). The command-line-only
version of ttfautohint is still available as `brew install ttfautothint`,
as usual.
If you want to build the GUI version as well, you can use this command:

$ brew install anthrotype/ttfautohint/ttfautohintGUI

Probably better to `brew uninstall ttfautohint` before you attempt the
above command, since that will install both `ttfautohint` and
`ttfautohintGUI` commands.

The instructions on the website need to be updated accordingly. /cc @Werner

Let me know if that works for you,
Cheers
