NOTE: If you don't have a /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/ directory,
you will need to make a symlink to the MacPorts Python 2.4 Framework
or blender will not run:

cd /Library/Frameworks
ln -s ${prefix}/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/ Python.framework
\n"
}

If you haven't already installed Darwin Ports, you can find easy instructions for doing so at the main Darwin Ports page.
Once Darwin Ports has been installed, in a terminal window and while online, type the following and hit return:

%  cd /opt/local/bin/portslocation/dports/blender
%  sudo port install blender  
Password: 

You will then be prompted for your root password, which you should enter. You may have to wait for a few minutes while the software is retrieved from the network and installed for you. Y ou should see something that looks similar to:

--->  Fetching blender
--->  Verifying checksum for blender
--->  Extracting blender
--->  Configuring blender
--->  Building blender with target all

--->  Staging blender into destroot

--->  Installing blender

- Make sure that you do not close the terminal window while Darwin Ports is working. Once the software has been installed, you can find further information about using blender with these commands:

%  man blender
%  apropos blender
%  which blender
%  locate blender
