To start Privoxy on boot, add: privoxy_enable="YES"
  to /etc/rc.conf.

  To start Privoxy manually, run:
  service privoxy onestart

  The rc script understands most of the commands listed
  in rc(8), it also contains a list of other rc variables
  you can use.

  Privoxy's example files were copied to:
  /usr/local/share/examples/privoxy

  For documentation see:
  /usr/local/share/doc/privoxy/user-manual or 'man privoxy'

  Note that default.filter and default.action get
  overwritten with each Privoxy update. Instead of
  changing them you should use your own action and
  filter files as described in Privoxy's manual.

Ade Lovett (ade) · 3.0.3_2
Mass-conversion to the USE_AUTOTOOLS New World Order.  The code present in bsd.autotools.mk essentially makes this a no-op given that all the old variables set a USE_AUTOTOOLS_COMPAT variable, which is parsed in exactly the same way as USE_AUTOTOOLS itself.

Moreover, USE_AUTOTOOLS has already been extensively tested by the GNOME
team -- all GNOME 2.12.x ports use it.

Preliminary documentation can be found at:
	http://people.FreeBSD.org/~ade/autotools.txt

which is in the process of being SGMLized before introduction into the
Porters Handbook.

Light blue touch-paper.  Run.
