So you would like to do 'port search' and then copy the results by hand
to another port command?

For more pseudo-port usage, I am running
 port -v livecheck maintainer:raimue
on a regular basis to check for updates to any ports I maintain.

I wouldn't necessarily say it was by hand, but I've been doing things the embarrassing way (not precise as I'm winging this right now, but it gives you the idea how i've been abusing port):

port destroot `port installed | grep -v following | awk '{print $1}' | sort -u | tr "\n" " +universal "`

Later to be run with 'pkg' and finally into an 'mpkg pspp' (this was what I was doing prior to 1.7.0 to make a binary installer for PSPP as there were errors if you didn't walk ports through destroot, pkg, mpkg).

I periodically find myself still using the other utilities, likely to come up with the pseudo-ports that I'm unfamiliar with.
