It's: brew install proctools (not "procools") Just a minor correction to the above. It’s:

brew install proctools

(not “procools”)

Much easier to deal with than macports. Then pkill et al can be installed via "sudo brew install procools" I highly recommend installing the “homebrew” package manager (http://mxcl.github.com/homebrew/).
