gqlplus is a drop-in replacement for sqlplus, an Oracle SQL client, for
UNIX platforms. The difference between gqlplus and sqlplus is command-line
editing and history, plus tablename completion. As you know if you have
used sqlplus, it is notoriously difficult to correct typing errors and
other mistakes in your SQL statements. sqlplus does give you ability to
use external editor to edit a statement, but only the last statement you
typed. gqlplus solves this problem by providing the familiar command-line
editing and history as in tcsh or bash shells, and tablename completion,
while otherwise retaining compatibility with sqlplus. Thus, no user training
is needed - simply use gqlplus instead of sqlplus. In addition,
configuration/installation is trivial: gqlplus is a single binary compiled
executable (written in C), so all you need is download it and put it anywhere
in your PATH. After that, you'll be ready to use it.
===> The following configuration options are available for gqlplus-1.16_2:
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
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.
(Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above )
According to the Porter's Handbook (5.12.2.3.) default options must be added to
OPTIONS_DEFINE. This policy has been implemented only recently that's why we
have many ports violating this policy.
This patch adds the default options specified in the Porter's Handbook to
OPTIONS_DEFINE where they are being used. Ports maintained by
gnome@FreeBSD.org, kde@FreeBSD.org and x11@FreeBSD.org have been excluded.
