Program on a Mac?

I just bought the Propeller quick dev board. However, like an idiot, I didn't first check to see if the IDE environment will run on a Mac (Lion).

Is that going to be an issue? I used to be active with Propeller a long time ago but I used Windows then.

Thanks!

    I'm still running bst on 10.6.8 snow leopard. I like many of its features but have lost track of whether or not it runs on more recent OS releases and how it compares with PropellerIDE. It is no longer being actively developed. PropellerIDE requires 10.7 lion and above and is actively moving forward.

    Yeah, BST was (is) nice. Has anyone tried contacting BradC lately to see if he's changed his mind about releasing the source?

    Brad has been MIA since 2011. I think he moved on to other things. We do miss him.

    Maybe Parallax has been in touch since then.
