[Remind-Fans] problem with installing remind on Mac OS X

Thanks! Installing the Developer tools got me a good step further. I was
able to run "make", but running "sudo make install" gives me the below
error - looks like something is missing but I am not sure what to do
about it...

Turns out that my /usr/local/bin is an executable that contains a tcl
script "cm2rem.tcl" ! I have no idea how this ended up there!
