If you haven't already installed Darwin Ports, you can find easy instructions for doing so at the main Darwin Ports page.

%  cd /opt/local/bin/portslocation/dports/automake
%  sudo port install automake

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 automake
--->  Verifying checksum for automake
--->  Extracting automake
--->  Configuring automake
--->  Building automake with target all

--->  Staging automake into destroot

--->  Installing automake

- 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 automake with these commands:

%  man automake
%  apropos automake
%  which automake
%  locate automake
