      % sudo port install ledit

    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 ledit
      ---> Verifying checksum for ledit
      ---> Extracting ledit
      ---> Configuring ledit
      ---> Building ledit with target all
      ---> Staging ledit into destroot
      ---> Installing ledit
    - 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 ledit with these commands:

      % apropos ledit
      % which ledit
      % locate ledit
