 # Debugging on OSX
 
+We assume that all of the code is in a particular path:
+
+```
+FR_PATH=$(HOME)/
+```
+
 The program has to be signed:
 
 ````
+cd $(FR_PATH)
 codesign -s - -v -f --entitlements ./scripts/osx/debug.plist ./build/bin/local/radiusd
 ```
 
 
 Start it up in Xcode with a full path to the executable:
-`/PATH/build/bin/local/radiusd`.  Usually done via `open
+`$(FR_PATH)/build/bin/local/radiusd`.  Usually done via `open
 ./build/bin/local` and then dragging the `radius` program to the file selector in Xcode.
 
 Set command-line arguments:
 
 ```
--fxx -l stdout -m -d /PATH/raddb -D /PATH/share
+-fxx -l stdout -m -d $(FR_PATH)/raddb -D $(FR_PATH)/share
 ```
 
 And environment variables.
 
 ```
-DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH=/Users/alandekok/git/v3.2.x/build/lib/.libs>
-FR_LIBRARY_PATH=/Users/alandekok/git/v3.2.x/build/lib/local/.libs
+DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH=$(FR_PATH)/build/lib/.libs>
+FR_LIBRARY_PATH=$(FR_PATH)/build/lib/local/.libs
 ```
 
 Pass signals in `lldb` directly to the program:
