After running cvsup (with GUI if necessary) how could one know whether there are new or removed ports? 2. I use "portversion -l '<'" to see which installed ports have a new version, but often I would like to know the actual new version number to decide whether it's worth updating or not. Is there any standard utility or way to do this or do I need to write my own script? 3. I would like to run "make readme" just on modified ports, whether they are installed or not, what would be a suitable way to accomplish it?
