[PD] floathotel and/or maphash and compiling for OS X

[Phil Stone]

Hello,

Has anyone compiled Orm Finnendah*l*'s floathotel and/or maphash objects 
for Mac OS X Intel?  see:

http://icem-www.folkwang-hochschule.de/~finnendahl/pd.html

They don't seem to be in Pd-extended, unless I've missed them.

On a more general note, I'd love to be able to compile these or other 
externals myself, but I'm embarrassed to admit, I can't get the hang of 
compiling PD objects for OS X.  I can't even get the first steps of Fink 
package downloading working from Hans' tutorial for compiling all of 
PD-extended for OS X.  I've studied floathotel's makefile, but I can't 
figure out how to change the linux-isms to Darwin-isms(?) or whether I 
should be using XCode or command line "make", etc.  Could some kind 
person walk me through this?  I've coded C on Unix (too many years ago 
to admit), and know a makefile from an include, but this eludes me.
