 Hello - am very new to Macports so pardon the ignorance:
 I ran the commands to install PSPP and ChemKit. Both proceeded without
 error. However, when I try to open the executables in the bin folder, they
 don't open. I can't seem to find the right files to get the application to
 work. How do I do this?

 I've tried cleaning, all the alternative methods of installation, etc.
 When I open the executable pspp.exec it says it's implementing but i've
 kept it open for some time and it doesn't open. In the process of
 installing these apps, it successfully installed Python and Qt4 to my
 macports folder and launchpad but the other ones are not there. What am I
 doing wrong?

 How do I make these apps work?
