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:
Elvis is a clone of vi/ex, the standard UNIX editor. Elvis supports nearly all of the vi/ex commands, in both visual mode and colon mode. This is version 1.8pl4 with a kanji patch to display & Edit Japanese. It understands JIS/EUC/Shift-JIS. It display Kanji character with JIS code by default: if you want to display with EUC/Shift-JIS, add "-kdeuc" /"-ksjis" to the command line option. Also at startup time, jelvis read `.elvisrc', not `.exrc'. If you use `.exrc', change config.h and recompile. You can obtain elvis 1.8 patchlevel 4, from: ftp://ftp.cs.pdx.edu/pub/elvis/ and patchkit for making original jelvis 1.8p4+j1.1 from: ftp://ftp.foretune.co.jp/pub/tools/jelvis/

For ports maintained by ports@FreeBSD.org, remove names and/or
e-mail addresses from the pkg-descr file that could reasonably
be mistaken for maintainer contact information in order to avoid
confusion on the part of users looking for support. As a pleasant
side effect this also avoids confusion and/or frustration for people
who are no longer maintaining those ports.

As threatened on freebsd-ports: all startup scripts know about the two   options
`start' and `stop' now (unless I have forgotten any). This allows   us to call
the scripts from /etc/rc.shutdown with the correct option.
