Thanks a lot!

I have as you sugested, but have a problems:

>>  $(MKDIR) $(FILESDIR)
>> $(CP) ${WRKSRC}/kissdx.in ${FILESDIR}
>
> I don't really like to create FILESDIR and move from WRKSRC to FILESDIR. 
> The WRKDIR/WRKSRC are the place where you work anything inside. However, 
> move from WRKSRC to FILESDIR might create problem in future so avoid that.

When I leve it out I get this error:
===>  Installing for kissdx-0.13.10a
** Missing /usr/ports/distfiles/files/kissdx.in for kissdx-0.13.10a.
*** Error code 1

You are probably right. I read it first of cause. But its not very easy to 
understand, if you havent worked with porting before.
(The are almost no examples in it.)
