[ns] How to install NS-2 on Mac OS X 10.3.3

[Tony Young]

Hi all,

This is my first time posting to this list, and I need help. If this is 
the wrong place to post, please accept my apologies and disregard this 
message. I'm very new to all this UNIX stuff, and I need this piece of 
software to work for a University course.

I'm trying to get NS installed on my MacOSX 10.3.3 system. I'm getting 
the following error:

...
/usr/include/ctype.h: At top level:
/Users/tony/ns-allinone-2.27/tk8.4.5/generic/tk3d.c:1134: error:

For problems with Tcl/Tk see http://www.scriptics.com

and it exits. When I try to install the packages "from pieces" as the 
ns instructions state, I get errors that it can't find Tcl/Tk EVEN 
AFTER I
install the files according to the online Tcl/Tk instructions.

Any help you can provide would be incredibly wonderful! Thanks!

Talk later,
