Thank you for your quick answer John, but it's not usefull for the
purpose i told before.

I don't know if you have already used FreeBSD ports collection before,
it's a big directory structure based on BSD make, and it installs
everything from source code, building on local machine.

This structure controls version and checks 3 things from source code
tarballs: size, md5 and sha256, based on this, if we don't have a

windowmaker-YYYYMMDD.tar.gz file, i cannot make the port, every
time default.tar.gz is rerolled port will stop working.
