Get notified when packages are built

A new feature has been added. FreshPorts already tracks package built by the FreeBSD project. This information is displayed on each port page. You can now get an email when FreshPorts notices a new package is available for something on one of your watch lists. However, you must opt into that. Click on Report Subscriptions on the right, and New Package Notification box, and click on Update.

FInally, under Watch Lists, click on ABI Package Subscriptions to select your ABI (e.g. FreeBSD:14:amd64) & package set (latest/quarterly) combinatio for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Description:
This compiler produces text adventure games that can be played using Infocom-compatible interpreters (such as jzip and xzip in the FreeBSD Ports Collection). This port normally installs HTML documentation in /usr/share/doc/inform. If you would prefer another format, such as TeX, Postscript, or PDF, build the port WITHOUT=DOCS and obtain the manual from the FTP site. The FTP site also contains example games and other resources.
