+the OSX packaging of this project.</p>

+<h2>Build Prerequisites<a class="headerlink" href="#build-prerequisites" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
+<p>Building ctags on OSX should be no different than building on GNU/Linux. The same toolchains are used, and the Mac OS
+packaging scripts use autotools and make (as you’d expect).</p>
+<p>You may need to install the xcode command line tools. You can install the entire xcode distribution from the App Store,
+or for a lighter install, you can simply run <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">xcode-select</span> <span class="pre">--install</span></code> to <em>only</em> install the compilers and such. See
+<a class="reference external" href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/9329325">https://stackoverflow.com/a/9329325</a> for more information. Once your build toolchain is installed, proceed to the next
+section.</p>
+<p>At this point, if you’d like to build from an IDE, you’ll have to figure it out. Building ctags is a pretty straightforward
+process that matches many other projects and most decent IDEs should be able to handle it.</p>

+<h3>Building Manually (i.e. for development)<a class="headerlink" href="#building-manually-i-e-for-development" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
+<p>You can simply run the build instructions in README.md.</p>

+<section id="building-with-homebrew">
+<h3>Building with Homebrew<a class="headerlink" href="#building-with-homebrew" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
+<p>Homebrew (<a class="reference external" href="https://brew.sh/">https://brew.sh/</a>) is the preferred method for installing Universal Ctags for end users. Currently, the process
+for installing with Homebrew looks like this:</p>
+<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="n">brew</span> <span class="n">tap</span> <span class="n">universal</span><span class="o">-</span><span class="n">ctags</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="n">universal</span><span class="o">-</span><span class="n">ctags</span>
+<span class="n">brew</span> <span class="n">install</span> <span class="o">--</span><span class="n">HEAD</span> <span class="n">universal</span><span class="o">-</span><span class="n">ctags</span>
+</pre></div>
+</div>
+<p>Eventually, we hope to move the Universal-ctags formula to the main Homebrew repository, but since we don’t have any
+tagged releases at this point, it’s a head-only formula and wouldn’t be accepted. When we have a tagged release, we’ll
+submit a PR to Homebrew.</p>
+<p>If you’d like to help with the Homebrew formula, you can find the repository here:

+<h2>Differences between OSX and GNU/Linux<a class="headerlink" href="#differences-between-osx-and-gnu-linux" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
+<p>There other things where building ctags on OSX differs from building on GNU/Linux.</p>
+<ul class="simple">
+<li><p>Filenames on HFS+ (the Mac OS filesystem) are case-preserving, but not case-sensitive in 99% of configurations. If a
+user manually formats their disk with a case sensitive version of HFS+, then the filesystem will behave like normal
+GNU/Linux systems. Depending on users doing this is not a good thing.</p></li>
