Is there any way to install software from the *.tgz file that is its package, in NetBSD? Or indeed in operating systems with similar package managers such as OpenBSD or FreeBSD?
For example, I can install the nano editor on NetBSD using this command:
pkgin nano
(I could do the same with a similar pkg install nano command on FreeBSD.)
What if I download the package file directly from the operating system's package repository, which would be a URL like http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/i386/7.1/All/nano-2.8.7.tgz?
Having obtained the package file from the repository by hand like this, is there any way to now install nano directly from it? How do I do that?

you must use pkg_add
from the manual:
The pkg_add command is used to extract and upgrade packages that have
been previously created with the pkg_create(1) command. Packages are
prepared collections of pre-built binaries, documentation, configura-
tions, installation instructions and/or other files. pkg_add can recur-
sively install other packages that the current package depends on or
requires from both local disk and via FTP or HTTP.
