That could do the trick... Wes said: "I have to resort to 'make search'" which presumably means he'd prefer to just ls /usr/ports/$emacs_category; while 'make search' is a bearable interface (FMPOV), you can't beat a ls. Hey, what about materialized virtual categories? A bunch of symlinks, and everyone's happy. Or is that too much for CVS? -- How many Vietnam vets does it take to screw in a light bulb? You don't know, man. You don't KNOW. Cause you weren't THERE. http://bash.org/?255991
