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. Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)fb16dfecae
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. This commit implements such a proposal and moves one of the WWW: entries of each pkg-descr file into the respective port's Makefile. A heuristic attempts to identify the most relevant URL in case there is more than one WWW: entry in some pkg-descr file. URLs that are not moved into the Makefile are prefixed with "See also:" instead of "WWW:" in the pkg-descr files in order to preserve them. There are 1256 ports that had no WWW: entries in pkg-descr files. These ports will not be touched in this commit. The portlint port has been adjusted to expect a WWW entry in each port Makefile, and to flag any remaining "WWW:" lines in pkg-descr files as deprecated. Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)b7f05445c0

New port: shells/poshinit: Portable shell setup for Bash/Zsh across FreeBSD/Linux/Cygwin You want your shell stuff to work the same way even when you use a different shell, or even a different box. Right? If you use poshinit (Portable Shell Initialization), you can attain at least most of what you desire, perhaps even all. You can log out of Bash and log in with Zsh (or vice versa) - and your aliases/exports/functions will continue to work as before. It gets better - if someday you need to use a different box with a different OS, you can get your shell to work your 'normal' way in a jiffy. Just save your $HOME/.shell directory on your primary box, and paste it over your second box's $HOME/.shell (after running poshinit setup script on the second box). The second box need not be the same operating system - poshinit works across FreeBSD / Linux / Cygwin.
