			@title Arcanist User Guide: Mac OS X
			@group userguide

			Explains how to install Arcanist on Mac OS X.

			= Required Components =

			You need to install:

			- PHP, which should be installed by default.
			- Arcanist itself, see @{article:Arcanist User Guide}.
			- SVN, Git, or Mercurial.

			Then, configure:

			- Your PATH environmental variable should include `arcanist/bin`, and
			`php` and your VCS command (`svn`, `hg`, `git`) should be in PATH. When you
			type `php`, `arc`, or (for example) `git` from the command line, they should
			all do something.
			- Your EDITOR environmental variable should point at some valid CLI editor,
			like `nano`, which is the best editor.

			You can edit your `~/.profile` to permanently configure environmental variables.

			Now you should be able to run `arc` like a normal command.
