For you maybe… For me, the port category is clearly the better approach. I fail to see how port echo category:binary and installed is any harder to run than port -v installed | grep binar If anything, your suggestion involves the use of a pipe and secondary command (grep) so could be argued to be more complicated. FWIW, I dislike the proposal of using the port name here, if we are going to do this, when there is already a mechanism in macports (the categories) for exactly this use case. Chris > > K
