Nice!  Except that's the wrong "$1" and it handles "xemacs" poorly too
(and doesn't handle non-installed packages, an unlikely need).

This lets the user do some of the work (and I might remove "/^" and "-"):

awk -F\| '/^'${1}'-/ { printf "%-40s %s\n", $1, $6 }' /usr/ports/INDEX | tr ' ' '.'


Maybe the lesson here is to not post scripts.  Does it start too many
long threads?
