- Description:
- Pine(tm) --a Program for Internet News & Email-- is a tool for reading,
sending, and managing electronic messages. It was designed specifically
with novice computer users in mind, but can be tailored to accommodate the
needs of "power users" as well. Pine uses Internet message protocols
(e.g. RFC-822, SMTP, MIME, IMAP, NNTP) and runs on Unix and PCs.
The guiding principles for Pine's user-interface were: careful limitation
of features, one-character mnemonic commands, always-present command
menus, immediate user feedback, and high tolerance for user mistakes. It
is intended that Pine can be learned by exploration rather than reading
manuals.
Pine's message composition editor (Pico) and its file browser (Pilot) are
also available as separate stand-alone programs. Pico is a very simple
and easy-to-use text editor offering paragraph justification, cut/paste,
and a spelling checker.

Remove the port for Pine, and the slave port for Pico. UW has discontinued
development on the Pine branch, and is instead focusing its efforts on the
successor, Alpine. http://www.washington.edu/alpine/
Alpine has more features, much better localization, better organized
(and largely rewritten) code, is BSD licensed, and should be a drop-in
replacement in terms of configuration files.
Alpine version 1.00 was released on March 17, 2008 after over a year of
development and community testing, and has since had 2 releases for
bugfixes and new features, so it's safe to say that this is a mature
replacement. |

Fixed several bugs reported by Dan Pollock and Michael Anttila,
also added some improvements.
1. Crash when a symbolic link in the new/ directorry exists.

folder to be pruned.

For the ports that I maintain, do the following as appropriate:
1. Add myself as a backup master site (Sourceforge and CPAN ports
already have good enough coverage, so skip them).
2. For all ports that have them, download the PGP signature files.
3. For ports in 2, add a verify target to the Makefile
4. For ports where I was already providing a master site, update the URL.
5. Pet portlint in a couple of places. |

Update Pine and Pico to 4.64, the latest from UW. This version contains
mostly bug fixes, with a few small new features. See the following for
details: http://www.washington.edu/pine/changes/4.63-to-4.64.html
I also updated the Pine port to stop building Pico, and instead
depend on the Pico port. This solves a CONFLICTS situation, and
is arguably the more logical way to handle this. Also, if you use
an alternate editor for Pine, you no longer have to install Pico
if you don't want it.
Make the dependency on ispell conditional. [1] This is not exactly
what the PR originator requested, but it will accomplish basically
the same thing.
Use these new things called variables to help ensure that the
maildir patches can be found from version to version. [2]

This patch allows Pine to display color in a cons25 terminal without
inappropriate scrolling. The problem is related to the behavior of
cons25 when something is written to the lower right corner.
This will cause a "blank" square in that position for some terminals,
but the effect is harmless.

Per request of the "dynamic everything" folks, remove the -static from
CFLAGS. We're far enough past the transition of cclient being a dependency
that I think this is safe.
I've tested this in environments with and without the cclient port installed,
and it should be ok. If anyone has any problems, please let me know asap. |

* Don't do patch + sed for PREFIX-related changes, just use sed in one pass
* Update to Makefile COMMENT
* Take advantage of pkg-message to hit both ports and package installs
* Thanks to work done by winter to make ispell do reasonable things when
invoked as 'spell', properly define the speller for pico, and add a default
speller for the pine.conf. The reason for the latter is to take advantage of
the (arguably) superior behavior of ispell when files are piped to it.
* Do to the speller updates, grow a dependency on ispell and bump the revision.
* Add readme and copyright to portdocs |

Upgrade to 4.53, the latest version from our friends at UW. Several
bugs have been fixed, mostly in new options. Users of Pine are
encouraged to upgrade.
In addition to the version upgrade, I've overhauled the port. The most
significant change is that I'm now using the include version of the
c-client library, as opposed to the shared version used by the IMAP
port. The main reason for this is to stay current with the Pine
developer's view of the program. An additional benefit is that this
change will allow me to update the Pine port more rapidly, without
having to wait for the shared cclient port.
In order to avoid conflicts with the IMAP server port, I am now
compiling the pine binary static. On my system, this actually gives
the pine binary a smaller memory footprint. I've also adopted the
same option semantics that are currently in use for cclient. Namely
that WITH_SSL is now the default.
The other change of note is that I'm now installing the rpdump and
rpload binaries that let you save and load a remote pine configuration.
The Makefile has also been cleaned up, somewhat simplified, and made
more generic. The basic functionality should be the same. |

These files have suffered from a lot of bitrot, and either don't work, or
don't work well. They also don't take gnupg into account at all.
Therefore I'm removing them from here, and in their place I've created a
new pine-pgp-filters port with totally new, and fully functional versions. |
