no objections. There were two reasons for basing the instructions on fink: 1) That's what I tried, when I had the chance. 2) Fink offers an x11-based kdelibs, while (as far as I am aware), MacPorts does not. This is not a show-stopper, but the rkward graphics device will need to be ported to a Mac native solution. Until then, our on-screen graphics related features (basically, everything in the menu bar and tool bar on a graphics device) will be unavailable. This should not be a problem during compilation, however (in theory), and using the Quartz-device should still be possible, or can be realized, easily by modifying rk.screen.device(). But in fact, MacPorts looks like the more actively maintained project, and so it probably make a lot of sense to go that way. Regards Thomas
