OK all you ports-index fiends, here's another update on the INDEX
browser, available at ftp://gsoft.com.au/pub/pib.tcl.gz
New in this version :

 - stale distfile detection
 - INDEX search on selectable categories

The stale distfile detection requires a patched version of bsd.port.mk
to be placed in the same directory as pib.tcl, the additions are
detailed below.

Ultimately, I'm not sure whether I want to prune this makefile or have
the changes added to the standard bsd.port.mk.  Because make has to be
used to work out the distfile requirements and bsd.port.mk is huge,
processing the 640 or so ports that I have here takes several minutes.

Anyway, if anyone has the time or inclination, I'd really appreciate
some feedback.

To do 'stale' distfile detection, make a copy of bsd.port.mk in
the same directory as the 'pib.tcl' file, and add the following lines
to the bottom :

list-distfiles:
        @echo DIST_SUBDIR ${DIST_SUBDIR}
        @echo DISTFILES ${DISTFILES}
