Start with this in Terminal:

	cp ~/Library/TeXShop/Engines/XeLaTeX.engine ~/Library/TeXShop/ 
Engines/XeLaTeXx.engine
	chmod a+x ~/Library/TeXShop/Engines/XeLaTeXx.engine
	nano ~/Library/TeXShop/Engines/XeLaTeXx.engine

Nano is a quite simple text editor, you could also use pico. In it  
just change the line

	xelatex "$1"

to become

	xelatex -output-driver=xdvipdfmx "$1"

or to this form that will emit less output

	xelatex -output-driver='xdvipdfmx -E -q' "$1"

Then save the engine file and choose in TeXShop ``XeLaTeXx´´ as  
typesetting engine. A modern TeXShop, some version 2.x, should  
already come with a XeLaTeX-xdvipdfmx.engine.
