I'm trying to run AutoDock on a dual 2 GHz G5 running OS X 10.3.
 Fortunately, the folks at Scripps have provided precompiled binaries of
 AutoDock and AutoGrid for OS X. My problem is setting the stack size to
 unlimited under OS X. Like Linux, OS X uses a bashrc file for systemwide
 bash configuration. I can edit the file to add "ulimit -s unlimited"
 as
 superuser (using sudo) but OS X won't allow my default account (which has
 administrator privileges) to modify the stack size. I'm pretty sure this has
 something to do with the peculiarities of OS X but I'm not sure how to fix
 it. Can anyone shed some light?
