pkgfe

i'm currently in progress of putting pkgfe back into ports

that's my 20+ year old project for ports tui i created out of frustration of having to copy and paste things around a terminal

i think to this day we have no proper package search install delete ui. i think some barebones is in installer now?

anyway why not have more than one way, like unix!

however it's like effort to port this to poudriere+pkg use. to be honest it still includes features that only worked pre-pkgng times. i so far have used it with ports tree and portupgrade to this day

so what would anyone here think of this? even 20y ago i included features there that i didn't use personally but i thought others could fine useful like execute as root command prefix and so on

all the information below, complete with oldschool pages and questionable "version control" the 22 year old me created
