I've seen a lot of piss-poor *nix install docs, but nothing I've encountered the docs to arch so I can install it and compile the 0.5. Could someone post instructions on doing that? How it can be "better" than CVS is beyond me.

Okay, I assume that you already downloaded the tarball, I am using tla-1.1
Extract the tarball by doing:
$ tar zxf <file>
then
$ cd tla-1.1
then
$ less \=INSTALL
(You need to escape = because = is a specialy character in bash)
Feel free to ask again if you need help. Also, from my 2 days of arch usage, I think you should follow the first instruction instead of the second one.

I've figured as much, but I'd rather go back to System 6 than to install Fink on my OS X box. I really don't want it there. I think I need a developement OS X box just to install stuff like that on.

Fink isn't bad though. I suppose you can just download the diff from gnu.org. If there's demand for it, I can also put tarballs (of wsmanager) up or something.

forgot to mention that you need to install diffutils package from fink.
