OS X is an UNIX OS. \u00a0The Aqua GUI is nice an all but in order to get the full potential of OS X, you should know how to work with the Terminal(xterm) and scripts. \u00a0Other free *NIXes have developed a nice package system and it is MacPorts that does package managements on OS X.<\/p>\n

Requirement:
\nYou need Apple Xcode Development Tools. \u00a0Get it from AppStore(Link<\/a>):
\n\"AppleStore-Xcode\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It is free!!! \u00a0After it is installed, you need to accept Xcode EULA by either running xcode or entering the following command in the Terminal:<\/p>\n

% xcodebuild -license<\/code><\/pre>\n
Go to Applications then double click on the Xcode so it gets installed on the system.<\/p>\n
\"Xcode-Welcome\"<\/a><\/p>\n
Now the Command Line Tools needs to be installed. \u00a0Go to Xcode->Preferences->Downloads:<\/p>\n
\"Xcode-Pref-Downloads\"<\/a><\/p>\n
Click on the “Install” button next the the Command Line Tools.<\/p>\n
 <\/p>\n
Now, MacPorts can be installed via .pkg\/.dmg and the links are:
\nMountain Lion:\u00a0https:\/\/distfiles.macports.org\/MacPorts\/MacPorts-2.1.2-10.8-MountainLion.pkg<\/a>
\nLion:\u00a0https:\/\/distfiles.macports.org\/MacPorts\/MacPorts-2.1.2-10.7-Lion.pkg<\/a>
\nSnow Leopard:\u00a0https:\/\/distfiles.macports.org\/MacPorts\/MacPorts-2.1.2-10.6-SnowLeopard.pkg<\/a>
\nLeopard:\u00a0https:\/\/distfiles.macports.org\/MacPorts\/MacPorts-2.1.2-10.5-Leopard.dmg<\/a><\/p>\n
After downloading the .pkg\/.dmg, simply double-click on it to get it installed.<\/p>\n
Self update: in a Terminal type the following:<\/p>\n
% sudo port -v selfupdate<\/code><\/pre>\n
