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/binutils
%  sudo port install binutils

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

--->  Staging binutils into destroot

--->  Installing binutils

- 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 binutils with these commands:

%  man binutils
%  apropos binutils
%  which binutils
%  locate binutils
