Yay!!! =)

As always, the Mac is a special case:

(1) The new OS (OSX) is Unix-based (BSD-flavour) so it shouldn't be hard to
compile CHEST. (A GCC-based compiler is available for free from Apple) I think I
will try to compile CHEST this evening. Also Tk/Tcl are freely available with
source, so it's not hard to compile this. (I did compile 8.4 some weeks ago, I
think)

(2) OS9 and below (which is _completely_ different than OSX)
No idea really :) [I came to Mac 'recently' from NeXT]
