The following is the commands you should type to install aMule on MacOS X.
This HowTo is written to install aMule cvs but should work for any other version. Please note that you should always download the latest aMule version available.
Whenever curl is used, if it isn't installed on your system, just download the file manually. Lines beginning with a # character are comments on what the following lines do.

# install Xcode Tools
# http://developer.apple.com/tools/download/
# Getting ADC ID > Log In > Download Software > Developer Tools > Download Xcode Tools last release > Install

# make amule dir in home
cd ~
mkdir amule
cd amule

# get source from the internet and unpack it
curl -O http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/wxwindows/wxMac-2.5.2.tar.gz
curl -O http://amule.hirnriss.net/cvs/aMule-cvs-20040927.tar.bz2
tar -xjf aMule-cvs-20040927.tar.bz2
tar -xzf wxMac-2.5.2.tar.gz

# remove downloaded archives after unpacking
rm wxMac-2.5.2.tar.gz aMule-cvs-20040927.tar.bz2

# install wxMac
cd wxMac-2.5.2
# directory "build" should already be there. if not, create it with 
# "mkdir build":
cd build
../configure
make
sudo make install
cd ..
cd ..

# install aMule
cd aMule-cvs
./configure --disable-systray  --disable-gtk --enable-embedded_crypto --with-wx-prefix=/usr/local --with-wx-config=/usr/local/bin/wx-config 
make
cd ..

# create app-Container
curl -O http://one2one.no.sapo.pt/amule.zip
unzip amule.zip
rm amule.zip
cp aMule-2.0.0rc5/src/amule amule.app/Contents/MacOS/

# move amule to your Applications folder
mv amule.app /Applications


If you get an error like this: You cannot open the application "amule" because it may be damaged or incomplete, right click on amule then click on Show Packages Contents, go to Contents>MacOS> and double click on amule. Next time you start from amule.app it will run fine. If you still get the same error, move amule.app to the desktop and run it from there.
