The makefile included with the source code has been modified from the
original one that I provided.  I suspect that the backslash was put in there
so that the makefile works with MinGW on Windows.  For Darwin and similar
platforms, it will build a binary named "..b2d" inside the src directory,
although I don't think that the program will work as expected.  ie.  "XYZ is
in the wrong format!"

The binaries on this page:

http://hoop-la.ca/apple2/appleoldies/bmp2dhr/

I built these some time ago from older source code.  They may work but with
fewer features.  The PowerPC binaries may not work because of byte ordering
issues.

I did take a look at newer source code a few months ago, but it would take
effort to make the source portable.  

You could run the exe using wine, or bootcamp or a virtual machine booting
windows.  The alternative is tohgr:

tohgr works well with png images (requires libpng.) tohgr doesn't do as many
modes as bmp2dhr.  And, I have to say I am quite impressed with the results
using "Buckels Dithering" :)
