Ray, to start with, GM 0.6.3 only works with Firefox's 1.5 betas.  If
you're not using that, you probably want GM 0.5.3.

I'm guessing you're not familiar with OS X's command line.

I'll try to detail the steps as clearly as I can, and you let me know
if something isn't clear.

Open Terminal.  It's in Applications/Utilities.

You'll get a window which says "Welcome to Darwin!" and has a prompt
that looks something like this:
patriot:~ jeremy$
where "patriot" is replaced with your machine name, and "jeremy" is
replaced with your user name.

This is a unix command prompt, and it's useful for lots of stuff.  If
you want to know more, google for "bash howto".

In Terminal, enter these commands, exactly as I'm giving them here;
type enter after each command.  If you get an error, stop at that
command and tell me what you get.

I am assuming that you haven't created a special profile in Firefox;
if you have, replace "default" below with the name of your profile.

=======
cd ~/Library/Application\ Support/Firefox/Profiles/*.default
mkdir gm_scripts
touch gm_scripts/config.xml
=======
If you received no errors, you now have the right files in the right
place, and should be able to install user scripts.

If you still have trouble, let us know.
