That's fine, you can always ask for help here or in the #macports IRC
channel on freenode (make sure to idle around, there's not always
somebody available immediately).

https://opensource.conformal.com/wiki/spectrwm#OSX seems to have some
information on what needs to be done to get this working with OS X, but
then I can already see the instructions are not completely correct,
because the changes in the Makefile described there should probably also
include changing the library's name to libswmhack.$(LVERS).dylib.
