An alternative method of installing certain Unix apps
Uhhh... "but they also add a lot of bulk to your hard drive" -- so here, download this 378MB application for less overkill. ???

Right - MacPorts is 455 KB - a teeny tiny fraction of the size. Oh, and it can compile into pkg files too. I see no advantage to using Rudix.

Wrong - if you want to, you're free to download the entire collection. But you can just download individual packages without that overhead. To that extent, it's less overhead than MacPorts - you don't need anything installed except the package you're obtaining.

Ummmm... Not sure what you're talking about re: rudix needing you to install something ~ 380mb. If all you want is wget... just download wget.pkg. It's less than 1mb. Edited on May 08, '10 01:01:55PM by swiney
