+OS X
+====
+
+Once macports is installed::
+
+    port install bcfg2
+
+Using native OS X python
+------------------------
+
+First, make sure you have Xcode installed as you need `packagemaker` which 
+comes bundled in the Developer tools.
+
+Clone the git source::
+
+    git clone git://git.mcs.anl.gov/bcfg2.git
+
+Change to the osx directory and type make. Your new package should be located 
+at bcfg2-'''$VERSION'''.pkg (where '''$VERSION''' is that which is specified
+in setup.py).
