I'm sure there's a way to get sqlloader working on a Mac but I couldn't find it on the downloads page like I could for Windows installations. Would anyone be able to direct me towards the way to do this?

Installation instructions are similar to those given on the download page http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/intel-macsoft-096467.html#ic_osx_inst Set up the 'basic' package as shown. Instead of using the 'sqlplus' package unzip the 'tools' package.
