****

First off, let me say that since I do not own and never have owned a Mac 
I have absolutely no way to actually maintain proper building methods on 
OSX.  Therefore, building on OSX will be limited to gnustep-make style
compilations.

Secondly, if you cannot understand the instructions herein, please download
the binaries rather than wasting my time with issues related to lack of skill
with unix-like systems and the command line environment.  The binaries are
the recommended way of dealing with TalkSoup on OS X.  You have been warned.

****

Step 1: 
	Download gnustep-make from http://www.gnustep.org.  You do not need
	gnustep-base or gnustep-gui; all you need is gnustep-make.  Read the
	included documentation and proceed with its installation.

Step 2:
	Download netclasses from http://netclasses.aeruder.net

Step 2:
	Run Misc/setup_osx.sh and read the instructions.

Step 3:
	Target .app will be at TalkSoup.app with all frameworks and plugins as part
	of the bundle.

Conclusion:
	Have fun!  Hope you enjoy TalkSoup! :)
