Re: [Lynx-dev] Installing Lynx on Macbook Air

[Travis Siegel]

Yes, home brew was the other system I couldn't remember.  Never tried 
it, because I was gunshy after getting my system hosed, and besides, 
I've been compiling from source so long, it was just more natural for me 
to continue doing so when I was using a mac. (currently only have a 
macbook circa 2007, so don't use OSX much these days), but I still 
absolutely love the os.  If they weren't so expensive, I'd still be a 
mac user <sigh>
