From the port directory, e.g. /usr/ports/multimedia/mplayer, type this: cat pkg-plist | more This will show you the list of files and directories that were installed by the make install command. If you are using csh for your shell then the newly installed files will not be immediately available unless you type rehash from the shell where you invoked make. Good luck! lane P.S.
