HI,
I have a Mac PPC G5 running OS 10.5.8 and was disappointed when NetSurf 2.7
wouldn't run on it. Since receiving your post below I have downloaded and
installed Xcode 3.1.3 (there's supposed to be a 3.1.4 but I can't find it) and
now Netsurf runs a treat on my Mac.
Many thanks for that information.
Alan

The same happens here, but with OS 10.6.7 on an Intel iMac.
Disappointing, as I was so pleased to see the port for Mac OS X.
The NetSurf 2.8 release should work on Intel macs with 10.6 or later:

NetSurf 2.7 should work on older PPC macs, however to get NetSurf 2.7
working you need to install xcode, which sets the MIME mapping for CSS.
