Thanks for all the responses. Running "port contents py27-spyder"
returns several hundred different items. But I think the most relevant
are the last two:
...
/opt/local/bin/spyder
/opt/local/bin/spyder-2.7
These are aliases that both both point to the same file:
/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin
This is a unix executable file. When I try to run this, a terminal
window pops up and says:
ersions/2.7/bin/spyder ; exit;
Traceback (most recent call last):

I presume that this is not what is supposed to happen. A few questions:
1) Have I attempted to run the right thing?
2) Does this error message indicate a bad install? If so, any
suggestions as to where to begin fixing it?
3) For future reference how do I find out where the executable file
for an installed port resides? (When one installs Spyder on windows
one gets a nice clicky icon in the start menu -- I have no experience
in discovering where executables hide in unix).
4) Mark, if you could email/post that script it would help me verify
that I'm running the right thing.
Thanks again,
-AM
