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

--->  Staging ncbi_tools into destroot

--->  Installing ncbi_tools

- 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 ncbi_tools with these commands:

%  man ncbi_tools
%  apropos ncbi_tools
%  which ncbi_tools
%  locate ncbi_tools
