I have a question to satisfy my curiosity only. A while ago I've seen that a 
ports system was the way to get software on freebsd -- this was on a server my 
friend administers.

Is the port system very similar between freebsd and macports, or are those 
things similar only in name and are really completely separate implementations? 
For example, would a "benign" portfile from MacPorts work with freebsd? Do they 
use tcl as well?

Cheers, Kuba

PS. Again, this is only to satisfy my curiosity, I'm not a freebsd user, nor do 
I want to start any flamewars about who is better, as that's not the point here.
