- Description:
- Approximate matching searching utilities to search for manpages and files.
This package holds THREE little search utilities:
* whichman -- search utility for man pages and it works
much like the well known Unix command "where".
* ftff -- a fault tolerant file finder
ftff works like the whichman above but searches the directory
tree. This is a case in-sensitive and fault tolerant way of
'find . -name xxxx -print'
* ftwhich -- a fault tolerant "which" command
ftwhich finds files (programs) which are in one of the directories in
your PATH and uses a fault tolerant search algorithm.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

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. |
