- Description:
- Taipan was (and is) a classic role-playing game from the 1980s.
While not as graphically oriented as some of the other popular games
of the time (e.g. Choplifter, Karateka, and Lode Runner), Taipan still
managed to capture the imagination of almost every player that laid
hands upon it.
Loosely based upon James Clavell's best-selling novel "Tai-Pan", the
game lets you play the role of an ocean-going trader doing business in
major Asian ports during the mid-1800s. Your objective is simple: make
the most money possible by trading and pirating. Based out of Hong Kong,
you'll sail from harbor to harbor buying commodities including opium,
silk, arms, and "general" goods, and selling them again at a higher
price elsewhere.

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.
