Open an OS X Terminal window and go to the directory where
pine-bin.osx-10.4.Z is located. To uncompress it, type this:

uncompress pine-bin.osx-10.4.Z

To rename it, type this:

mv -i pine-bin.osx-10.4 pine4.64

(you can name it whatever you want, e.g., you could name it
simply 'pine')

To make it executable, type this:

chmod +x pine4.64

To run it from this directory, type this:

./pine4.64

Move it to a directory on your path and then you'll be able to
launch it from anywhere without needing to specify the path.

You don't really need to install pico because pico comes
pre-installed in Mac OS X.

Let us know if this version of Pine works for you!
