Thanks for your help. Its taken me a week to get back to you because =
there was so much updating being done. It took me a while to get the =
have of portdb & portupdate. But I now have wxPython working!!
I just have 1 further question, and I'm asking you because its in your =
script. How important is marcusmerge? What part does it play in the =
ports system.
Thanks,
Chris.

I know, but I want to make sure that I have the possibility to choose=20
what I want to update, and there are some ports I really want to update=20
by hand. (tmda for example) So I have the
vi /root/work/update
line for removeing some ports I want to update by hand. (Normally I do=20
that before I close the vi)
