+ PREREQUISITES:
+
+ Heimdall requires C++11 (aka C++0x) functionality in order to compile.
+ Unfortunately, XCode includes an old version of GCC which does not
+ include support for C++11. XCode does include clang, which does
+ support C++11. However, clang's C++11 can only target OS X 10.7 or
+ newer. There are also slight compatibility issues between clang and
+ Qt, which is required in order to compile Heimdall Frontend. As such
+ these instructions will utilise GCC 4.7 installed via Homebrew.
+
+ Xcode can be downloaded through the App store or from Apple's
+ developer website:
+
+ https://developer.apple.com/xcode/
+
+ Homebrew install instructions are available at:
+
+ http://mxcl.github.io/homebrew/
+
+ 1. First make sure you have installed XCode and Homebrew (see above). Then
+ open a terminal and install GCC 4.7, pkgconfig and libusbx via Homebrew:
+
+ brew tap homebrew/versions
+ brew install gcc47 pkgconfig libusbx
+
+ NOTE: Installing GCC 4.7 will take a long time.
