How do you install this?

[mm-ns]

Any chance you could add info about how do you install hcitool on osx?

Just swift build and copy it wherever you like. If you want it always on your command line environment add it to your path.

@colemancda I have some warning & errors when running swift build. Using Apple Swift version 4.0.3 (swiftlang-900.0.74.1 clang-900.0.39.2) on MacOs 10.12.6 Any suggestions appreciated.
