A little trick I do is this: 1. go to ftp.someopenbsdmirror.com/pub/OpenBSD/3.9/packages/i386 and "get" the index.txt file.
2. create another file called "1" without the quotes with the following: pkg_add -v ftp://ftp.someopenbsdmirror.com/pub/OpenBSD/3.9/packages/i386/\ 3. Whenever you want to install something, open the index.txt file with vi and find a package you want to install. Move your cursor to that line and type yy and the :e 1 <enter>. Don't type <enter> just press the button. 4. Then type p You should see something like this: pkg_add -v ftp://ftp.someopenbsdmirror.com/pub/OpenBSD/3.9/packages/i386/\ somepackage-1.4.2.3.tgz 5. Then type :wq 6. Then type sh 1
