Actually he does not want to do it. He prefers to be alone to use the old KNOB system just to do `not like all other people`. So because you can't make a convenient `make config` you need to read the makefile or installing ports-mgmt/lsknobs, run lsknobs in the current port path and then set every knob you want in /etc/make.conf But be careful ! Because make.conf is used by every port you should use ports-mgmt/portconf to write only vim knob in /usr/local/etc/ports.conf like : editors/vim: WITHOUT_X11. Isn't that convenient? :-) -- David Demelier
