Right, that's the "port select" feature. This is only used for a handful of big ports (like the python and gcc ports) and we don't do this for individual python modules for example. The purpose of "port select" is to make it easier on the command line to access these programs by using a familiar name. Another way to accomplish that would be for you to create a shell alias: alias pdf2txt.py=pdf2txt.py-2.7 _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
