I presume Florent's preferred method is "INSTALL_PROGRAM"? So far, the only doc I've found is that it exists. So I put INSTALL_PROGRAM $(WORKDIR)/$(PORTNAME) (portname just happens to be the name of the executable) in the port Makefile, or what? I've never been able to 'read' makefiles, so I'm not sure a look at ports.mk is going to cause anything but frustration. We've spent minutes arguing philisophy, can I get a couple seconds of example? :) Otherwise, PLIST_FILES looks like it will work to me...
