OS X is not a Linux-derived operating system and the apt-get functionality is not present. There are third-party, package managers available for OS X (e.g. homebrew (http://brew.sh) , macports, etc.) that allow you to install non-Apple software packages. You may also want the command-line tool wget, which you can get via a package manager (brew info wget) request. You already have cURL in OS X.
