Hi, again! :)
I've finished the new version of the program. I decided to name it `sit'
- Simple Interactive Tool
`sit' now supports the following:
-- improved code for dynamic memory allocation
-- local package pattern search
-- remote (ftp) package pattern search
-- command line arguments to specify a local or remote installation
-- uses some env variables like PACKAGEROOT, OSRELEASE and MACHTYPE to
determite which package and from where to be installed
The remote/ftp package pattern search is done by searching the INDEX
file for a pattern and extracting the needed information from it. The
program uses a default values for these environment variables if they
have not been set:
-- PACKAGEROOT = ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/
-- MACHTYPE = i386
-- OSRELEASE = 8-current
It doesn't have any requirements, so it should build and run on any
system that has fetch and pkg_add support.
Screenshots of various usage of the program can be found in here:

And the code is here:
http://unix-heaven.org/doc/sit/sit-0.2.5.tar.gz
Well, I hope someone finds it useful :)
P.S: If someone have any suggestions on how to improve it more - let me
know :)
Cheers!
