Graphic Counter Language is a powerful programming language for the creation of
graphic and textual counters and timers. These can be used on the web, as well
as in graphic application programs (such as XWindow applications) which can
call the GCL interpeter internally and have it create a counter or a timer.
Gracula is the compiler/interpreter for Graphic Counter Language, developed
under FreeBSD, though usable on any Unix system.
For details about the language, visit GCL home page (www.whizkidtech.net/gcl/)
as well as Count Gracula's Gallery (www.whizkidtech.redprince.net/gcl/gallery)
which contains a number of sample GCL scripts and showcases various counter
designs.
GCL requires no configuration files. All you provide is graphic images and
simple scripts. Optionally, you may link the images directly into the gracula
executable. GCL can also receive input from external programs. A sample program
is included (sec2000). It allows the creation of GCL counters to display the
number of seconds (or minutes, hours, days) left till the Year 2000.
Gracula is written in C and highly optimized for speed which makes it work
reliably even on the busiest web sites.
===> The following configuration options are available for gracula-3.0_1:
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
Please read the file /usr/local/share/doc/gracula/README
to learn how to use Graphic Counter Language (if you haven't
installed WITHOUT=DOCS).
An introductory tutorial, and a GCL FAQ, can be found at
http://www.whizkidtech.redprince.net/gcl/
You should read both to take full advantage of the power
of Graphic Counter Language.
Also, sample scripts and graphics are available from

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.
