What I find handy is a perl script called portsearch. It is located in
ports/Tools/scripts/
I moved it into a directory in my path. Then, I added an
alias search 'portsearch -n $1'
You can do interesting things like
search ^bison
Where the port name begins with bison. There are a number of other
interesting options. They are covered in a README.
Make search does something similar but the output from portsearch is
cleaner.
