Instead of setting off on a mass-edit of Portfiles, I'd suggest just automating file size (and digests for that matter) outside of build recipes. You can get that info (in most cases) with just a wee bit of scripting. JMHO ... Have fun with the Portfile edit! if that's what you choose to do. hth 73 de Jeff _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-dev
