[Xastir] Language-Files Installer

[Steve Peters]

Juergen and the list,

I, for one, would appreciate an OSX installer.

I've been a lurker on this list for about a year, and got an earlier 
build working last summer with some tweaks and help from others on this 
list (thanks!).  Since then I have re-installed my OS and moved to a 
new desktop computer at work.

Xastir is the only package that I would have to compile, and I have not 
gotten past the activation energy needed to install the developer tools 
package, XFree86, Fink, and all the relevant libraries,  etc.

I have no idea how much work this would be, or if there is a Mac 
aficionado out there willing to take the time.  I understand that the 
installer would not be caught up with the current dev-releases, but I 
would be willing to live with a longer upgrade cycle (6 months?) if it 
was easier to manage in the long run.
