[Ifeffit] [athena, artemis,Ifeffit, etc.] OS X installer?

[Paul Fons]

Thanks for the help offer.  I might even take you up on it in the 
(hopefully) near future.  My current installation of athena, artemis, 
etc. is built using my manually installed perl 5.8.0 which is not 
compatible with the standard perl 5.6 that apple provides.  I will have 
to build a new installation to make things more compatible.  Then 
making a tar file will be a lot easier.  Of course, the libraries 
required will span several different locations, namely /Library/Perl, 
/sw/lib, and /usr/local/bin among others.  It would also be nice to put 
up a warning on the install telling people that it will install stuff 
into fink's space without telling fink about it (hence I want to make a 
fink based installation possible as well).
