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/libcaca
%  sudo port install libcaca

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

--->  Staging libcaca into destroot

--->  Installing libcaca

- 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 libcaca with these commands:

%  man libcaca
%  apropos libcaca
%  which libcaca
%  locate libcaca
