I have no idea how to install this application on OS X Lion: http://foremost.sourceforge.net/

It just says:

--------------------------------------------
INSTALL FOREMOST
--------------------------------------------

To run foremost, you must:

- uncompress the archive
- compile
- install

Here's how to do it:

LINUX:
$ tar zxvf foremost-xx.tar.gz
$ cd foremost-xx
$ make
$ make install

BSD:
$ tar zxvf foremost-xx.tar.gz
$ cd foremost-xx
$ make unix
$ make install

SOLARIS:
$ tar zxvf foremost-xx.tar.gz
$ cd foremost-xx
$ make solaris
$ make install

OSX:
$ tar zxvf foremost-xx.tar.gz
$ cd foremost-xx
$ make mac
$ make macinstall

Sorry, but I still don't know what to do.

You have to go into terminal to issue those commands. It appears that Foremost is not an "osx" app but a unix program that can run in OSX (because OSX is unix)
