Here's an amusing little stumbling block.

Having downloaded the trial version of Max 6 to my Mac, I wanted to try
running Csound in it as an external. The Floss Manual page on this topic
sent me off to a download location, where I grabbed csound~_v1.1.0_mac.zip.
This zip file contains, as it turns out, csound~_v2.0.0_double.pkg.

However, the .pkg installer refuses to install the required .mxo. Why?
Because it fails to detect Max 5, that's why.

Is there an updated version of the installer lurking somewhere? Or,
alternatively, could somebody who has successfully run the installer kindly
attach the .mxo file to a response to this message? Thanks!

Good suggestion, Bernt. Thanks!

I was afraid for a minute that installing version 5 had toasted my 30-day
trial of version 6, but after I ran the installer for 6 again, the trial
version woke up and was willing to play nice. It appears the csound~ object
is available -- it has inlets and outlets. Now to actually try using it....

Yes I had the same issue the other day and had to resort to manual
installation as suggested by Bernt.
