Initial import of pkg_select-20050403 from pkgsrc-wip (this package
seems to be really useful now, and it's ready to be on pkgsrc). pkg_select will display a curses file browser for the pkg system. You can browse pkgsrc and gather various informations about packages, like avail- able version, installed version, comment and homepage. A simple paging system lets you read information files. You can browse both installed and uninstalled packages, as well as dependencies list and perform vari- ous administrative tasks to them. A package finder system helps you to easily locate a package by its name. pkg_select can handle either source or binary installations when pkgsrc is installed on the local system, or binary only when using the pkgsrc-over-ftp feature. If no pkgsrc is installed, pkg_select offers ability fo fetch it, either by FTP or CVS. It is also possible to update an existing pkgsrc via the interface. pkg_select user interface is quite self explainatory, every available shortcut is shown and annotated.
