executing this command:

To make the change persist after restarting X11, insert the same command
into your ~/.xinitrc file or the X11 system default file:

/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc

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 x3270
--->  Verifying checksum for x3270
--->  Extracting x3270
--->  Configuring x3270
--->  Building x3270 with target all

--->  Staging x3270 into destroot

--->  Installing x3270

- 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 x3270 with these commands:

%  man x3270
%  apropos x3270
%  which x3270
%  locate x3270
