And now it's been a while. I tried this out with a new Mac, and it works well. I did not compile aspell or test Tiger or 64-bit support. A couple of minor comments, with my numbering following that of INSTALL.MacOSX: PREREQUISITES 1. Can Qt be installed from Nokia's .dmg, or must it be self-compiled? I followed the instructions to compile it myself, and it worked with no problems, but if that's not necessary, it might be worth making it clearer. 2. The version of automake macports installed is 2.67, which autogen.sh rejected. (It wants only automake < 2.65.) So I had to edit autogen.sh to allow 2.67, which worked fine. BUILD INSTRUCTIONS 1. Environment (a) ... "We have to change that with if on that build system". Should this be: "We have to change that if not on that build system"? That's it. Nice job with the clear documentation ... and nice work on LyX/Mac quite generally. It's coming along great! BH
