To use the Perl script made by Kiriel on a mac running Mac OS X follow these simple steps.

1) Locate your CL Macro folder, Kiriel's is at "/Volumes/Games/Clan Lord/Macros/"
 	If it's not there (which is most likely) you need to change a line in the getpflist.pl file.
 	If it's at that location proceed to step 2.
 	1.1) Open the getpflist.pl file with a text editor
 	1.2) Change the following line so that the path corresponds to your macro folder
 			$cldir = "/Volumes/Games/Clan Lord/Macros/";
 			For example to
 			$cldir = "/Applications/Clan Lord/Macros/";
 			Save the file in the same directory as your macros (for simplicity)
2) Open the Terminal application. It can be found in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder.
3) First change the working directory to that of your macros, to do that type:
 	cd ../../Applications/Clan\ Lord/Macros/
4) Then invoke the Perl script by typing the following:
 	perl getpflist.pl
5) That's it, just quit the Terminal application and you can verify that the file
 	pflist.txt was created/updated in your macros folder.

Whenever you want to update your list of full pathfinder you just need to run the
script by following steps 2 to 5.
