One of the things you can look into with OSX is to compile your own from source code. The lovely thing about this situation is that with the source code (what the devoloper actually writes) and a compiler for your computer (which OSX should have) you can make it work on OSX, it's usually a case of uncompressing the code (tar zxvf filename at a terminal) will do this, then go into the directory it was created in and read the documentation. Compiline is usually just a case of:

./configure
make
make install

And you have working software, the two links below may work, if I get time tonight I'll run through it and see how it works out,I have an OSX machine at home. As a side note, the second link requires something called GTK which is freely available from http://gtk-osx.sourceforge.net/index.html.
