Which applications (software) do I need to create custom missions on Mac? Where can I get them?

Sadly, yes. FRED hasn't been ported to any other systems as of yet--I seem to remember DaveB calling it 'the omega of unwieldy code.'

There was a WXFred project to make a cross-platform version, but no one has worked on it for years.  So for the moment, you are stuck with editing the mission files manually, which isn't as hard as it may seem, though quite tedious.
