[OTR-users] OTR on Mac OS X.

Hello,

I need some advice.

I have a friend using Mac OS X. I want to use OTR to talk to her 
privately. I figured that setting up the OTR proxy would be difficult. She 
is semi-technical, but not very, and I have never touched a Mac. And I 
can't find any instructions on the OTR home page.

I figured it'd be better to wait until Adium 0.8 came out, but we're 
getting inpatient. There are some things we want to discuss, but only with 
OTR.

What would you recommend?

 * Is the OTR proxy hard to install and use on Mac OS X?
 * If it isn't, where can I find instructions?
 * Should I tell her to install Adium X 0.8 beta 3 ?
   Adium X doesn't seem to have instructions for OTR either. :-(

Normally I'd just try all these options myself and pick what I think will 
work best for her. But since I don't have a Mac, I can't do that.

Help?

Cheers,
