Extract with the tar -xvf command and they created the following directory: /pub/FreeBSD/branches/-current/ports/misc/...... Anyway, I'm unable to cd into the -current directory to run the makefile. How do I cd to a -minus directory? man pages indicate I can remove a directory and it's contents, but to see the rm(1) command. When I try to do a "man rm(1)" it won't work either. Any suggestions?
