      ---> Verifying checksum for aewm
      ---> Extracting aewm
      ---> Configuring aewm
      ---> Building aewm with target all
      ---> Staging aewm into destroot
      ---> Installing aewm
    - 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 aewm with these commands:

      % apropos aewm
