Nope. Problem is that for "some reason", "dat", which is an executable 
needed by LW to compile, and provided by allegro, is either not in the 
path or does not have the same name on MacOS X. You need to find out 
where this "dat" executable or its replacement on MacOS X is (it surely 
exists somewhere) and then manage so that calling "dat" from the command 
line launches the right program. You could probably achieve this by 
making a symbolic link or adding some directory to your path.

AFAIK esd, liquidwar and allegro don't go very well together.

Good luck,
