Let me think about how to implement this. I use a bash completion to make
life simpler, but I agree that it's worthwhile. (Beware line wrap)
_portmaster () {
local cur
cur=${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]}
case "$cur" in
/usr/ports/*)
COMPREPLY=( $( compgen -d $cur ) )
;;
*/*) COMPREPLY=( $( compgen -d /usr/ports/$cur ) )
;;
*) COMPREPLY=( $( compgen -d /var/db/pkg/$cur ) )
COMPREPLY=( ${COMPREPLY[@]#/var/db/pkg/} )
COMPREPLY=( ${COMPREPLY[@]:-} $( compgen -d /usr/ports/$cur
) )
;;
esac
return 0
}
complete -F _portmaster portmaster

That's next on my list. :)

Yep, braino on my part. I uploaded a version that fixes that issue. Thanks
for pointing this out.

*shudder* Way too complex for my tastes. I'd rather rebuild the ports that
depend on that library.

Thanks! And thanks again for the thought you've put into the feedback you've
given.
