Each "port" listed here contains any patches necessary to make the original application source code compile and run on FreeBSD. Installing an application is as simple as downloading the port, unpacking it and typing make in the port directory. The Makefile automatically fetches the application source code, either from a local disk or via ftp, unpacks it on your system, applies the patches, and compiles. If all goes well, simply type make install to install the application. For more information about using ports, see the ports collection http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/ports.html and http://www.freebsd.org/ports/ New ports added last two weeks ------------------------------ Category devel ================================================== tclcheck-1.1.8 A program to check the nesting of parenthesis in tcl scripts.

Unlike other similar Netscape Plug-ins (e.g. the Movieplayer Plug-in on SGI), MpegTV Plug-in is capable of streaming from the network, i.e. you can play a remote MPEG stream immediately, without having to wait for the MPEG file to be downloaded on your hard disk. MpegTV Plug-in 1.0 is currently available for: - Solaris 2.5 SPARC - IRIX 6.2 - Linux x86 - Solaris 2.5 x86 (coming soon) - BSD/OS 3.0 (coming soon) Get it now at http://www.mpegtv.com/plugin.html ! -- Regards, -- Tristan Savatier (President, MpegTV LLC) MpegTV: http://www.mpegtv.com
