This is generally a good idea, and something I've also thought about implementing. It'd be nice to avoid implementing this inside macports.tcl, though. <bikeshedding> I don't know if "port environment" is a great action name, since the "environment" is already something specific to *nix. I've always envisioned something like this: $ port config prefix=/opt/local portdbpath=/opt/local/var/macports [...] $ port config prefix /opt/local $ port config build_arch x86_64 $ port config foobarbaz [write "Nonexistent setting" to stderr, return non-zero] </bikeshedding> vq _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
