In trying to get a working wx on my Snow leopard Mac I think I managed to throw 
away all traces of macport remains, and installed a clean GHC 6.12, a clean wx, 
wxcore etc. Now the website says that I still need this macosx-app, which is 
bundled in the binary installers, but which these have been discontinued. I 
can't find the templates however in the source files which I need to build this 
macosx-app myself. So I have the following questions:

  - do I still need macosx-app (my impression is: yes), and if so how can I get 
one
  - what is the role of the cabal-macosx
  - is the wxhaskell wiki uptodate; 
    my impression is that it is not describing the actual situation anymore 
with respect to the questions above

PS: I am a bit worried about showing my incompetence as a system manager, so I 
would be happy if someone could help me out, for which efoort in return I am 
prepared to explain how I got things working on the wiki
