It does indeed, thank you! I think it's fairly functional right now for my regular use. One minor nit I've noticed is that it even tries to update installed ports that have a higher version number than the one currently in the ports tree (for instance, some updated ports I haven't submitted yet). Although not too important for the casual user, it could be useful to have some means to avoid downgrading these ports. Thanks again, Panagiotis
