Hi,

   I tried to install Cairo graphics

https://www.cairographics.org/download/

   and I need to install Macports.

   I tried to install Macports on my Mac OS Sierra 10.12.6, and type "sudo
port install cairo", but it did not respond. I haven't seen any file name
or app called Macports, but one file called "port" which is located at

loca/bin/port"

   How should I do it?

   Thanks,

John
