From looking at the Glotski web page:

http://gfpoken.bigw.org/glotski/

it looks like Glotski is a Gnome based Linux application. The only way you will be able to get this to run on your Mac is to install Apple X11, then install something like DarwinPorts or Fink, which lets you build open source software for your Mac, and then use it to install Glotski.

This will only work if DarwinPorts or Fink (both of these are essentially source level open source distros) have included Glotski in their distro. If this is not the case, you will have to download the source and build from source yourself. I have done this one or two apps and had it work, but I have also had to give up on a few.

No matter what, this won't be easy!

Here's a link for a unix version of klotski (scroll towards the bottom)

I dunno if it'll work.

Thanks!
