I just needed to make a tiny tweak to the Makefile in the vanilla vanitygen to make it work on my mac. It assumed certain libraries were in standard locations, but if you install software with MacPorts you need to tell it where to look for those libraries. If you use homebrew, you'll have to tweak it for that. Never used it so not sure where that installs to.

Code:

$ git diff Makefile
diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile
index 3486201..1b03ae9 100644
--- a/Makefile
+++ b/Makefile

Just for info: Stay away from Bitvanity's precompiled binary.
It's backdoored and some people have lost their bitcoins.

May Bitcoin be touched by his Noodly Appendage

You can use your own partial private keys
It's 100% secure

Create your own private key, calculate the corresponding public key, then put that public key in the "Your-Part-Public-Key:" form
You'll see that "Your-Part-Private-Key:" will disappear

Unfortunately I don't think a Mac version of vanitygen has been released!

I could get you up and running on windows. Or generate a 4 character vanity key for you free of charge.

Hey man. I don't have msn but could tell you through PM here!

Do you have bootcamp or something that allows you to run windows on your Mac?
