SOS 4.2 on a MAC

[Beth]

The SOS Client is not a native Mac app, so it needs a running X11 server.

X11 should be on the installation discs or you might find X11 from Apple's developer site. You should be able to find it with an X-code bundle. Also, there were some versions of OS X which had problems with X11 and it was fixed in a branch of this code named XQuartz - http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/wiki

In any case, once X11 is installed / configured, you must start the X11 server. After this you can either start an xterm and run the sos binary from a command line (/Application/SourceOffSite/sos), or just double the /Applications/SourceOffSite/sos icon)
