May now come as shipped. Otherwise download free from www.stuffit.com. Like winzip but much smoother and better integrated into the downloading system of the browser.
AFS.
For 10.3 or earlier
Get MacLeland from Stanford http://www.stanford.edu/group/itss/macstanford/macleland/
. This includes both Open AFS, and the Stanford GUI for managing it. See me for some tweaks that make it smooth (like getting /afs to look as though it is mounted in the root, rather than /Volumes/afs, so it looks just as it does when you're on an AFS machine at work). Also at Stanford ESS. (NB: You need a SUNet ID to access this.)
For Tiger OS10.4 (From Doug):
I've been using OpenAFS for MacOS X (Tiger), and it works pretty well. Easy download, and simple to configure for SLAC access. I'm assuming you don't use AFS access at LLNL or ANL. (Added by Steve L: I use it from LLNL; works fine except if you forget "klog" or the token expires after 25 hrs...then it can hang up Finder even when just "reading".)
Stephen Norum got the initial information, which indicated a few problems like the system would hang up when you go to sleep or shut down. We've been using this for a couple of weeks, and haven't seen any of these issues; if the AFS daemons can access the net, they will and if not, they won't - silently. I don't see any of the issues with sleeping or shutdown.

For Tiger OS - You must get a different version of emacs compiled for Tiger-
get emacs download from http://home.att.ne.jp/alpha/z123/emacs-mac-e.html
I placed an alias into my login .bashrc file : alias emacs="/Applications/Emacs/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs" so that I can emacs from xterm command line.
...
Xcode.
Apple's own IDE. As shipped on Developer CD. Heard it's great for C and Java development too but I don't use it. I use emacs and eclipse.
...
So, I whole-heartedly recommend this OmniGraffle tool, even though it has an odd name. And, this Pro version can be upgraded to the next version (v4) free of charge when it's available. (Added by Steve L 12/9/2005: current version is 4.0 to purchase and 4.1 for beta; I recommend going immediately to 4.1 as quite a few bugs are fixed.)
