+6.) How do I compile swftools on Mac OS X?
+
+    You need to get fink (http://fink.sourceforge.net), and install it.
+    After this, you need to install all the required libs (jpeg, freetype, lame):
+   
+    fink install libjpeg libjpeg-shlibs freetype2 freetype2-shlibs lame lame-shlibs
+
+    Then, you have to inform configure of where they are:
+
+    LDFLAGS="-L/sw/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I/sw/include -I/sw/include/lame" ./configure
+    make
+    sudo make install
+
+    If this doesn't work, especially if you want to use the python library and

+    lame from /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib, and then run configure/make/make install
