The Wireshark page on WikiPedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireshark) shows a nice pretty screen shot of Wireshark running on OS X. Where can I get the binaries (or even the source) for the OS X version of the GUI?

There is currently no native OS X version of the GUI; it's an X11 GUI on OS X, as it is on other UN*Xes, so you have to install the X11 server to run it on OS X.
