I've installed dnsmasq but I don't know how to make launchd start
dnsmasq on boot. I understand that this has something to do with
launchd but I could not find any documentation on how to do it.

Looks like the dnsmasq port doesn't currently install a launchd item (it has at least some of the bits but they are commented-out). Best would probably
be to file a ticket for it:

<http://trac.macports.org/newticket>

More generally (say, if you want to customize its startup), try "man launchd.conf".

Note that if you want to do something more complicated than launchd's respawn-and/or-watch-a-socket model, you may want to create a StartupItem instead. The reference I used (to create some static routes) was http://www.secure-computing.net/wiki/index.php/Leopard_Static_Routes .
