Games - DarwinPorts


In computing, DarwinPorts is a project to simplify installation of open source software on the Mac OS X
and Darwin
operating systems. Similar to Fink, DarwinPorts was started in 2002 as part of the OpenDarwin
project, with the involvement of a number of Apple Computer
employees including Landon Fuller, Kevin Van Vechten, and Jordan Hubbard
.

It allows the installation of a number of packages by simply entering port install packagename command in the Terminal
, which will then download, compile and install the requested software, while also installing any required dependencies automatically.

On April 28 2005, the project released version 1.0 of their software which supports approximately 2500 ports. The most recent version 1.2 was released on December 17 2005, providing over 3000 ports.
