Installing Command Line Tools on OSX Mavericks

December 14, 2013

One of the requirements on a Mac for creating a Native Client plugin for Chrome is to have Make installed. A version of Make comes with Command Line tools for Mac. I am using Xcode 5 on OSX Mavericks, but I found that under Xcode Preferences, Command Line tools is no longer listed to be downloaded.

Luckily Alok Yadav at Computers And You has posted an article explaining how to install Command Line Tools on OSX Mavericks. I went this route and it installed easily.

Also, "thekbb" pointed out on Stack Overflow that it can be downloaded from the Apple Developer Center.
