Thx Adam, I'll certainly will do that.
Shame on ME ,
and my faith in the FreeBSD porters.
Offcourse I should have checked the ports first.
Didn't even imagine it was allready ported. Found out about the
Lin-version today. ( yesterday )
Thx again for bringing this to my attension.



And a big "thanks" to Alexander Neidlinger, as well. :-)


A tip that I often use to find something in the ports is to cd to it using
this method:

cd /usr/ports/*/skype

If there is only one match, you'll end up in the appropriate directory. If
there's more than one match in several directories, you'll have to find it
yourself :)


Thx for the tip.
I usually go to
http://www.freebsd.org/ports/index.html
and search for the ports I'm looking for, but as said, I didn't even dreamed
of this program was allready ported. Thought it was brand a new lin-version.
I've used it before in windows-version.
It's now installed and working as expected, from ports.
But, again thanks for your help and kindness.
/ Hasse.



And then, the old tried && true:

$cd /usr/ports && make search key=skype
