Subject:   pkg with current pipe into pkg fetch problem...
Message-ID:  <E1cwJDw-0006em-QT@rmmprod05.runbox>

Until pkg fetch and/or pkg install can ncurses-deselect the hundreds they a=
re about to act on rather
than a Y, N...

cat pkg-to-fetch-file | xargs -J % pkg fetch -y %=20=20
seems to fail.

I've sed'd away the : and the right awk'd away

foo-1: foo-1_1=20

so the port remains
foo or foo-1, [ I forget... ]
but the list  [ the file... ]=20

foo
bar=20
ImageMagich
mplayer
=20
etc I can';t seem to pipe into the 'pkg fetch -y' reliably, or if I've found
the solution in the past, have forgotten it.

Experts?    or feature request?=20
OTOH may be in one of the xargs one-liner or cheat sheet I've filed locally=
 as
.htm, .txt or .pdf...=
