I recently downloaded YahooPOPs for OS X, but it came as the source code with a makefile. The readme file was very vague and cryptic, so-how do you compile a makefile in os x?
thanks,
CM

You should first make sure that you have the GNU Make Utility.
Have you installed the developer tools package that came with your OS disk pack?
If you mean xcode & etc. by dev tools, yes; but with no idea how to use them
OK, assuming you've installed xcode, open up the terminal, cd to the directory with your makefiles, and type "make". There may also be a file called "configure" in there too. If there is type "./configure" or "sh configure" first. Then run make.
what is cd and how do i do it?
Change Directory
To go up a level: cd xyzdirectory
down a level cd ..
