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/paq8
%  sudo port install paq8  
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 paq8
--->  Verifying checksum for paq8
--->  Extracting paq8
--->  Configuring paq8
--->  Building paq8 with target all

--->  Staging paq8 into destroot

--->  Installing paq8

- 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 paq8 with these commands:

%  man paq8
%  apropos paq8
%  which paq8
%  locate paq8
