[daip] New MAC OS - tiger and AIPS

[Wes Young]

Chris,

On the Tiger disk are X11 and the gcc compilers.  If you click on the  
Optional Installs icon, and click continue several times you will get  
to the "Custom Install on "Disk""  You should select X11 and install  
it if you haven't already. Also on the disk is Xcode Tools, you will  
want to install them too, make sure you install the X11sdk package.   
For AIPS we suggest doing a binary installation, as it is built with  
the IBM compilers which are much better than any of the GNU  
compilers.  Use install.pl -n, you might check Eric's AipsManager FAQ  
before running the installation.

Hope this helps some.
