Hi Helen, if this all does not work, you can install the pspp gui version also as a standard bundle without macports. So that is the usual mac way:
http://www.hs-augsburg.de/~beckmanf/pspp-0.10.2-dev.dmg <http://www.hs-augsburg.de/~beckmanf/pspp-0.10.2-dev.dmg> This bundle is for El Capitan, but it might work for other MacOS versions also.
