    Try compiling from source. I think ZebraineZ made a very nice guide on how to compile in OS X.

    I've tried to use XTools, but I can't download.

    Looks like your SDL isn't installed properly or it have been linked wrong, if you go to the folder /usr/lib can you find that file? If so, copy it to /usr/local/lib.

    I'm not sure what you're talking about... I just switched to Mac, so I don't know.

    Go to the folder /usr/lib (Just like /WINDOWS/system32 in Windows. I think Macs use Finder as a file browser, though I'm not sure. Do you see SDL installer there? If you do, copy it and paste it in the directory /usr/local/lib.

    There is no usr/local/lib. There is usr/lib, but nolocal anywhere.

    Make the directory and copy the libSDL file over to there.

    I can't make it, the new folder button is grayed out.
