So now I don't dread the dialog as I used to. But it would still be good to be able to set options through make.conf, comparable to what pkgsrc (NetBSD and ported to other mostly Unix-like OSes) and portage (Gentoo Linux) do. I have noticed how DOCS with docbook can be very cumbersome and overdone, how many different formats do we need? And hopefully docbook wouldn't have to be rebuilt every time for different ports that might require it.
