!!DESCRIPTION
;:The FreeBSD Ports Collection offers a simple way for users and administrators to install applications. Each port contains any patches necessary to make the original application source code compile and run on BSD. Compiling an application is as simple as typing make build in the port directory! The `Makefile' automatically fetches the application source code, either from a local disk or via ftp, unpacks it on your system, applies the patches, and compiles it. If all goes well, simply type make install to install the application.
