[Neuroimaging] Mac OSX 10.6.8 problem

[C.P. Rockel]

Hi Ariel,

when I type 'gcc' I get "command not found".  The rest of the commands did
nothing, and I got a similar error when trying to pip install dipy.

I know I have XCode, because I am looking at its icon on my doc.  Hmmm, any
chance that I don't have the right XCode?  How can I test this?

Thanks,

Conrad
