 To develop in Eiffel for the iPhone, you need:
-* a Mac running Mac OS X 10.5.7
+* a Mac running Mac OS X 10.5.7 or newer
 * the latest iPhone SDK 3.0 and the latest Xcode
 * the official EiffelStudio 6.4 release for the Mac

 For the moment, create a simple iPhone application with Xcode, then compile it for the simulator. Once done, you can type:
   cd ~/Library/Application\ Support/iPhone\ Simulator/User/Applications
-and find the directory corresponding to the application you just created. Once done go into that directory and into the Application bundle. Delete the binary and create a symbolic link to the application compiled via EiffelStudio in the W_code directory.

Delete the binary and create a symbolic link to the application compiled via EiffelStudio in the W_code directory. Also remove the .nib file in that directory, for otherwise the application may crash during start.
 Now to test your application, you can simply launch the simulator and start your application from there. The simulator is located at:

		+	First, you need to create the CECIL archive of your Eiffel iPhone application. To do so, go in either W_code or F_code (I recommend F_code here), and type '''make cecil'''. Once you have that, you get an archive file (e.g. libbasic.a).

		+	Create an Xcode project, this time include the CECIL archive and the 2 other C libraries we compiled above as external references. Once done, edit `main.m' so its content look like:

 Then you need to check out the source code. The easiest is to create a directory 65dev, go in this directory and then checkout the source code by doing:
   svn co https://svn.eiffel.com/eiffelstudio/trunk/Src .
-Then set the environment variable '''ISE_LIBRARY''' to the 65dev directory above.
+Then set the environment variable '''ISE_LIBRARY''' and '''EIFFEL_SRC''' to the 65dev directory above.
 You need to compile some C code. Go in the $ISE_LIBRARY/experimental/library/objc_base/Clib and type
   finish_freezing -library
 then go in $ISE_LIBRARY/experimental/library/iPhone/Clib and type again
   finish_freezing -library
