Hi Helmut,

Glue Factory doesn't work on OS X, and there's not much prospect of 
it doing so, because the ability to read script dictionaries from 
packages  is not available in Frontier  I'd like to have a working 
glue making suite too.

That said, I recall somebody on the Frontier OS X email list talking 
about this a while back. Try a search of the archives of that list 
for glue.
