Hi Wes,

I'm installing AIPS on my new macbook pro and working thru the AIPS  
mac page but it seems to have a few things missing for Leopard.

So,

I'm download Xcode 3.0 from Apple but since X11 is mostly operational  
in 10.5 what else do I need to do before installing AIPS besides what  
is on the AIPS mac page.

-Thanks

--Glenn
