For csh/tcsh, issue "rehash": # portinstall myfooport # myfooport myfooport: Command not found # rehash # myfooport --version Welcome to myfooport v0.0.0! If you are indeed having this problem with /bin/sh, I'm not at all sure why, as I think it rereads the executables in $PATH fairly continuously (but then, I hardly use it for interactive use). A brief test here didn't show evidence that this would be a problem for sh, though. HTH, Kevin Kinsey -- Nobody wants constructive criticism. It's all we can do to put up with constructive praise.
