Doh! I found it now, under the 3d party stuff. OK, it was in plain 
sight. I downloaded it. It came with no readMe, so I just tried to run 
it, with the following unhelpful result.

Is there a special directory it must be in? Must it be run from a 
particular type of shell? The contents actually appear to be C++.

To be honest, I'm a novice with the unix stuff too. I'm trying to get 
this working so I can use it in a GUI IDE. Anyway, I also tried:

If the list sticks with me till it works, I'll post a step-by-step set 
of instructions for MacOS and for using it in XCode.
