Hello,

Has anyone compiled Orm Finnendah*l*'s floathotel and/or maphash objects for Mac OS X Intel? see:

They don't seem to be in Pd-extended, unless I've missed them.

On a more general note, I'd love to be able to compile these or other externals myself, but I'm embarrassed to admit, I can't get the hang of compiling PD objects for OS X. I can't even get the first steps of Fink package downloading working from Hans' tutorial for compiling all of PD-extended for OS X. I've studied floathotel's makefile, but I can't figure out how to change the linux-isms to Darwin-isms(?) or whether I should be using XCode or command line "make", etc. Could some kind person walk me through this? I've coded C on Unix (too many years ago to admit), and know a makefile from an include, but this eludes me.
