i'm attempting to install Grafx2 on my Mac and am running into problems attempting to set up the Frameworks (http://code.google.com/p/grafx2/wiki/OSXBuildSetup). i'm not well-versed in computers at all, so this has become an incredibly complicated challenge for myself (lol) -- the first problem i've encountered was very early, and it was this:
To Install:
Copy the SDL.framework to /Library/Frameworks
is this a folder (Library) i need to create myself or does it already exist? i briefly tried searching my computer and turned up nothing.
if anyone has the patience to quickly lay this out for me in the most simple of explanations, i would hugely appreciate it :-)

p.s. more questions may follow (a.k.a. there will definitely be more questions)

ok, it's been a while since i booted my mac last time. but i ported my sdl based game engine a few years ago to mac, and if i remember correctly, you just need to download the sdl library from the official homepage: http://www.libsdl.org/download-1.2.php and then copy it over.

"/Library" should exist on every mac, "/Library/Frameworks" might not exist depending on what you have installed. When you have a "/" in front of everything it means the root of the file system. In Mac's case they usually name this "Macintosh HD". If you still don't know where I'm talking about then open up "Finder" (the file manager) and on the top menu select "go" -> "Go to folder..." and enter "/Library/Frameworks".
