exMARS combines the latest advance in corewar simulation technology, with
proactive performance optimizations.

Actually exMARS is a redcode simulator, just like exhaust and pMARS. In fact,
I have shamelessly taken sourcecode from pMARS, exhaust, some ideas from
qMars, a shot of optimizations, shook everything well, and garnished
everything with a high level interface for Ruby.

The resulting program has the following main features:

* Uses the parser from pMARS, so no previous parsing is neccessary. At first
  this was my main motivation for exMARS.
* Speed: 50% faster than pmars on a Pentium III, and often more than twice as
  fast than pmars on a Pentium 4 (using gcc 3.3.1, and the same compiler
  options).
* Rewritten the code in a more object oriented way, which allows different
  Mars at the same time in the same program, it should also be thread save.

NOTE: This is only Ruby interface part. To install exmars use games/exmars port.

Send ports@ ruby ports over ruby@
most of these were from stas@

The vast majority of pkg-descr files had the following format when they
had both lines:

Author: ...
WWW: ....

So standardize on that, and move them to the end of the file when necessary.

Also fix some more whitespace, and remove more "signature tags" of varying
forms, like -- name, etc.

s/AUTHOR/Author/

A few other various formatting issues

- Mark as broken with Ruby 1.9

Approved by:    portmgr

-remove MD5

- Reassign ports to heap

Submitted by:   alepulver

- Use (more or less) "official" mirror instead of MASTER_SITE_LOCAL.
- Add (back) a WWW line to pkg-descr.
- Remove my old signature from pkg-descr.

Change the maintainership address to the @FreeBSD.org one.

Approved by:    garga (mentor)

- Add SHA256

Requested by:   maintainer

- Website gone; remove WWW, put distfile on master_site_local
