If you haven't already installed Darwin Ports, you can find easy instructions for doing so at the main Darwin Ports page.
Once Darwin Ports has been installed, in a terminal window and while online, type the following and hit return:

%  cd /opt/local/bin/portslocation/dports/gsl-devel
%  sudo port install gsl-devel  
Password: 

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 gsl-devel
--->  Verifying checksum for gsl-devel
--->  Extracting gsl-devel
--->  Configuring gsl-devel
--->  Building gsl-devel with target all

--->  Staging gsl-devel into destroot

--->  Installing gsl-devel

- 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 gsl-devel with these commands:

%  man gsl-devel
%  apropos gsl-devel
%  which gsl-devel
%  locate gsl-devel
