Bryce,

My attempts to use InkScape have given me so many problems with my
machine that I have decided to stop trying.
I shall try to delete all traces, do my best to recover the original
format of my folders etc, and resolve never to try InkScape again.
Computing is supposed to be fun. This has been a nightmare.

To answer your question, the version I downloaded was from http://www.inkscape.org/download/
Official Releases
Mac OS X Tiger and Leopard — Universal .dmg

Thanks for your interest anyway.

John
