Thank you Ryan. That was exactly my intention (suggesting improvements, not 
your being grateful for it ;)). I'm perfectly able to add aliases to my .tcshrc 
and/or write shell or Python wrapper scripts to bend tools to my tastes. And 
that's maybe what I'd have done if the port command had not been written in a 
rather high level language that's supposed to be tailored to all kinds of 
parsing.
(BTW, seeing Tcl being used surprised and amused me, bringing back memories to 
days long gone when I hacked an editor called Point :) )
