( yet) What I was wondering is if there is a make "target" where i can go into selected ports, make "whatever" to only fetch the distfiles ( with dependencies distfiles also) but not actually build the port itself. I thought I would ask here first before going through all the different Makefile's for selected ports, and going after the distfiles that way. Any help would be apprieciated...
