+Tested on OSX 10.10 Yosemite
+
+1 - Install Xcode and Xcode Command Line Tools
+
+2 - Install Homebrew and dependencies
+    brew install readline
+    brew instal libusb
+
+3 - Download DevKitARM for OSX
+    http://sourceforge.net/projects/devkitpro/files/devkitARM/devkitARM_r44/
+    Unpack devkitARM_r44-osx.tar.bz2 to proxmark3 directory.

+1 - Download 
+
+A precompiled DevKitARM cross compiler tool chain package can be found at 
+http://sourceforge.net/projects/devkitpro/files/devkitARM
+Select the one you need (32bit or 64bit) and unpack to a convinient place, eg 
+$HOME/proxmark3/. It will create a devkitARM/ subdirectory.
+
+You will also need a general compiling environment on your computer for
+the client and the libusb headers. In most distributions you will get all you 
+need with the lsb-package (Linux Standard Base). In debian/ubuntu you simply 
+call `aptitude install lsb libusb-dev libreadline-dev libreadline6`. 
+
+For the graphical plot view, you might need the qtlibs (debian/ubuntu: 
+libqt4-dev), too.
