I tried to update XCode, but it wouldn't let me since my OS is only
10.6.8.  :(

I'm not in the mood to update my OS at this point in my PhD...

My XCode is version is 3.2.6, and it doesn't have the Downloads option of
which you speak.

Are there any substitutes that you can think of?

Cheers,

Conrad
