Yeah, I've got the same question/problem. I've been following Graham's
posts with much interest, but I don't have any sort of C compiler which
would (from what I understand) allow me to compile and get the program
set up for the Mac.

Graham -- is there anyway you (or some other kind soul) could set up
a package for Mac owners? As I said in a previous post, I'm really
interested in this, but because I'm a neophyte (relatively so) to
programming and stuff, I'm not sure where to begin. 

Any info would be much appreciated. (I tried to search through Graham's
initial posts to follow the thread from its beginning, but my articles
have expired...)


Thanks in advance,
Chris Schweda
