MacProxy is a tool that packages an SLProxy application as a standalone Mac OS X application. When double-clicked, the application will start the proxy in the background and open Second Life, configured to connect through the proxy. The proxy runs entirely in the background, so its output will not be visible to the user. You do not need to have a Mac to run MacProxy; any typical Unix-like environment with Perl installed should suffice. To use MacProxy, navigate to the MacProxy directory and type ./build.pl "Application Name" path/to/executable.exe \ path/to/libraries.dll ... For example, to create a standalone ChatConsole for the Mac: ./build.pl "Chat Console" ../../bin/ChatConsole.exe \ ../../bin/SLProxy.dll ../../bin/libsecondlife.dll (Of course, this is entirely pointless, since ChatConsole provides no functionality unless run from a terminal.) CAVEATS The generated application will not work unless the user has the Mono framework installed. This should be distributed separately, since it's huge. The installer is available from http://www.mono-project.com/Downloads. MacProxy assumes that your proxy application accepts the standard suite of --proxy arguments via the command line (see SLProxy's documentation) and that it doesn't output anything of its own to stdout before the proxy is active.
