Hello, I am creating a port of the Core War system pMARS (the existent port is version 0.8, lastest is 0.9.2), and I will allow the user to choose the GUI and features. I have some questions: How can I "document" the options for the user? So that typing "make" will not do anything unless it has the required options (or it will use the defaults but first shows the available options). Will be possible for the user to store the configuration somwehere? Wich is the best way to show the user the options (before the building process)? P.S.: how do ports show the sysinstall-like dialog to choose options? Thanks and Best Regards, Ale
