== Installing the Dynare 4.1.0 Package on Mac OS X 10.5 or higher ==
 1. Download and run the appropriate Dynare Package for your system; OS X v10.5 should download the 32-bit package while OS X v10.6 are free to choose between the 32-bit and the 64-bit packages (unless you will be using Dynare with Octave, which only supports 32-bit).
 1. Install Dynare by double-clicking on the package and following the installation instructions.		 This page documents the installation of the Dynare on Mac OS X. If you have any troubles, please contact <<MailTo(houtan AT SPAMFREE dynare DOT org)>>

=== Matlab Setup ===
 1. Once installation is complete, open Matlab. Go to {{{File->Set Path...}}} and add the full path to the {{{DYNARE-4.1.0/}}} installation folder. If you have followed the standard installation (i.e., not changed the default installation location), this will be {{{/Applications/DYNARE-4.1.0}}}.
 1. Within the installation folder, navigate to {{{mex/sources}}}. In the standard installation, this will be {{{/Applications/DYNARE-4.1.0/mex/sources}}}.
