Personally, I had Not Much Luck with the open source stuff I've
downloaded for Mac. The readme told me which directory to put it in,
so I did. I tried to get fink to do something. I checked the readme
and had got the path correct. The program (tiny little freeware
thing) errored at me, told me I had got the path wrong, and just sat
there looking blank.
I had a similar problem with another program I tried.
(this is so long ago I forget which)
Almost certainly, you lot would have known what Wisdom to Perform
when the default in the readme file didn't work.
Unfortunately, I was fresh out of dead chickens, and ran away.

PS. Any actually coherent and sensible reason the reply-to seems to
go to 'individual user' rather than 'chatty mailing list'? I never
understand that...
