To do so, options menu can be used out of box, witout needs to install ports-mgmt/dialog4ports manually. It's licensed as BSD2CLAUSE and working fine for me until it first appears on ports. # IIRC, dialog4ports was not incorporated to base because it requires # GNU dialog and GNU dialog was going to be removed from base. # Now we have 2 ways, portconfig to be default and incorporated into base, # and incorporating dialog4ports into base with fixing to use bsddialog. BTW, is it possible to show that each option is on default or not? It would help determining changes to default. Regards. -- Tomoaki AOKI <junchoon@dec.sakura.ne.jp>
