My pan executable depends on 28 dylibs in /opt/local/lib, which would 
have been put there by MacPorts. So I suggest that your friend:
1. Get MacPorts if s/he doesn't have it.
2. Get the version of pan 0.133 that is available as a "port" (I suppose 
this will ultimately get you 0.134):
sudo port install pan2
3. Then it should be possible to run the executable I have 
(put it in /usr/local/bin), which I suppose could be uploaded by me or 
someone else. Or your friend may be happy with the current port version 
which should before long be upgradeable to 0.134 anyway:
sudo port upgrade pan2
All this can probably be done using fink instead of MacPorts. You have to 
have the X server that comes with MacOS X (X11 app) installed, to run pan.
