Have you read the man page for pkg_create? You can read it here: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=pkg_create. If you read it, can you narrow down your questions to be more specific (e.g. why don't the -f and -I arguments to pkg_create meet your requirements)? I'd recommend you create a simple ports directory with the Makefile, distinfo, pkg-descr files, etc. and do a "make package" from there. It's easier than specifying the many command line arguments to pkg_create and it helps portability. See http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/index.html for instructions.
