... and in this case, he'd better pipe that to more(1)

[17] Tue 30.Dec.2008 9:33:36 [kadmin@archangel][~]
pkg_info -L asfiles-1.0_2 | wc -l
231

 ... or, even better, to head:

[18] Tue 30.Dec.2008 9:33:50 [kadmin@archangel][~]
pkg_info -L asfiles-1.0_2 | head

Information for asfiles-1.0_2:
 
Files:
/usr/local/man/man1/files.1.gz
/usr/local/man/man3/regexp.3.gz
/usr/local/bin/files
/usr/local/include/bitmaps/MASK.xbm
/usr/local/include/bitmaps/application.xbm
/usr/local/include/bitmaps/autocad.xbm
/usr/local/include/bitmaps/bargraph.xbm

 ... and now we know why looking for asfiles
doesn't help much.  Try running "files", Luiz.
