+<P>Pd version 0.35 and up support Macintosh OSX. You need the Jaguar
+distribution (10.2) of OSX.
+
+<P> To install Pd you can always just download
the sources and compile them yourself, or (easier)
find a MacOSX-style "package". The first package was put together by Adam
-Lindsay and can be found on

+Hans's page, or try:

+get (a disk image opens) and then double click on the "package" icon, and the
+installer should tell you how to proceed from there.
+
+<P> Then download a tarball like pd-0.37-0.mac.tar.gz, and expand it
+(I think that's done just by clicking on the thing in OSX.) You can install
+it into your home directory for example. Then start a shell window and
+type "~/pd/bin/pd" to it, and pd should start.
