I was reconfiguring my localhost, and needed to install mighty drush (aka drupal shell http://www.drush.org or http://drupal.org/project/drush) on OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion. With a few tips from internets it took only a minute, but digging for that tips took much more of course. So here is a compilation, get your terminal ready.
I assume you've already set your up php.ini, if not, then just run sudo cp /private/etc/php.ini.default /private/etc/php.ini
Most probably you don't have PEAR...
As soon as latest versions of Drupal 6 work supposedly fine with PHP 5.3 I decided to give it a try with OSX 10.6 bundled PHP version.

Looks like after setting up PHP I'm now a compile-my-own adept. Here is my take on lynx web browser.
You may ask why would you need lynx at all? Well. There are many uses: usability and accessibility testing, understanding content layout without CSS tricks, checking SEO points (you see the site about the same as search engine sees it) and much much more. After all it looks so geeky :)
#1. Create src directory in your user folder where all needed files will be stored initially:

If you will Google it a bit there are many complains for this issue: why the colors on my photo uploaded to some website are not so vibrant as on my laptop/desktop?!? The answer is pretty simple: mismatched color profile.
A bit of technical background (let's take jpeg image format and sRGB color space as most used): the ColorProfile is embedded as text (aka metadata) string in you jpeg file.
