GMT on Mac OSX 10.2 using FINK (from source)
This method does not work as of May 20, 2003. See this page for an alternative way.
As of November 2002, "install_gmt" script supplied by GMT homepage
cannot complete GMT install on Mac OSX 10.2. Please use fink instead of
the script. Installation has been successful in Mac OSX 10.2.1, 10.2.2, and
10.2.3 as of January 2003. Many Thanks to Dr. Kengo Miyahara, Kyoto, Japan.
