How can one go about getting the Macintosh computer to dial a

A somewhat different idea. If you have Skype installed and running,
with Skype Out credit available, you can use the "callto:" URL prefix
to dial out.
callto://+16196921529
will call my phone (don't everyone try at once :-)
You seem to need the whole thing, even for a local number. It also
costs a little over .02 per minute (it shows the rate in Skype). It
is cross-platform.
If you have someone's Skype user handle, you can call that and it's
free.
