+OSX compilation
+---------------
+On MacOSX, you'll need to install some packages from
+[homebrew](http://brew.sh/):
+```
+brew update
+brew install xz libmagic
+```
+You'll also want to add `/usr/local/include` to your search path,
+for example:
+```
+./autogen.sh
+./configure CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include CXXFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include
+make
+```
+
+License
+-------
+
 The `zimlib` library is released under the GPLv2 license
 terms.

 OSX compilation
-----------------
+---------------
+OSX builds are similar to Linux, except we use homebrew.  Change to
+`../zimlib` and build zimlib as instructed in the README there.  Then
+return here and:
+```
+brew install gumbo-parser
+./autogen.sh
+./configure CXXFLAGS="-I../zimlib/include -I/usr/local/include" 
LDFLAGS=-L../zimlib/src/.libs
+make
+```
 
-On MaxOSX, a script helps you build zimwriterfs both statically and 
dynamically.
+Alternatively, there is a script included here to help you build both
+static and dynamic binaries for `zimwriterfs`.
 You must have a working and set up Kiwix repository (with dependencies ready).
 
 1. Install libmagic with brew (it's important)
