Thank you!
I was looking in the wrong place for the location where my port fetch
write to :-(
Now I got what I needed.
Thanks,
Ken

Hi;
Another very basic question that I missed the answer to in my search:
How to just download the source of a port?
I already have installed the port in question, I'd just like to
examine the source.
All the "easy" ways to obtain the source code seem to be temporarily
blocked by circumstance
