** My guess: You don't have "wget" and/or "curl" on your Mac?

Dear all,

Does anyone get org-download.el to work under Mac OSX? I'm struggling to get it work, but it seems to help a lot, empowering org to handle images a lot easier.

I believe I've installed org-download.el correctly, but when I'm dragging and drop the image into an org buffer, all I get is the link address inserted into the buffer, no downloading events trigger.

I double checked a few things before coming here:

- My system has both curl and download.

- I've set the download image dir to ~/Downloads/Foo

- The value of dnd-protocol-alist contains ("^\\(https?\\|ftp\\|file\\|nfs\\)://" . org-download-dnd)

The emacs I'm using is "GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin, NS apple-appkit-1038.36) of 2013-03-13 on bob.porkrind.org"

Is there any thought what I should check?

Best,

Chao
