[Freeswitch-users] Major Wiki updates for OS X

Hi there,
 excellent job.
I already have autoconf, ..., so many thanks for the warning on the wiki about it going horribly wrong if one then tries to use homebrew -- forewarned is ...
Question: did you edit modules.conf to uncomment portaudio?
          If so, did it work with homebrew, or did it die during the make process as it has for me?

For me, portaudio seems fundamentally b0rked on MacOS (at least with ML, as XCode doesn't include the SDKs it needs).
If it DOES work for you, it's WELL worth mentioning that -- I'd happily bomb it back to the stone age, reinstall ML/Xcode/..., only this time I'll use whatever it takes to get it working.

all the best,
  Lawrence

Sorry about the delay but it was a lot of work testing and "life events" got in the way, also some FreeSwitch bugs had to be squashed first. So it took months instead of weeks. I changed the main install Guides to point to the new OS X page. Oh, yes… every single OS X step was tested as well as all the links in the pages since many were updated. FreeSwitch prerequisites are much easier to install on OS X than in 2010!
