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

--->  Fetching mod_python
--->  Verifying checksum for mod_python
--->  Extracting mod_python
--->  Configuring mod_python
--->  Building mod_python with target all

--->  Staging mod_python into destroot

--->  Installing mod_python

- 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 mod_python with these commands:
