Hoping that /usr/sbin isn't full yet... This makes easier to get to
package readme files:
- Now you'll have exact command to view all added/changed readme

and where in MySQL you need to tweak, and still get there.
kirby@ already liked it. Any more thoughts?
Couldn't this just be a subcommand of pkg_info?
(Though personally I am pretty happy with "ln -s /usr/local/share/doc/pkg-readmes
/" ..)
I have to agree with Stuart, I don't think it warrants a separate command.
A bit at a loss about what switch to use though...
Looks like pkg_info is bound to replace ls(1) in the infamous monty
python joke.
pkg_search (made up) would be better to have. Finding a package and a
package you want, like maybe a new editor, a new compiler, can be very
hard. I usually go digging in /usr/ports but if you don't have or want
ports on your system I guess it might bug you. Maybe pkg_catalog or
something. Something very good and similar to browsing /usr/ports. --Gustav
