At the end when it dumps all the info about the various port/packages it installed, it can produce a lot of output... In my case I don't know how many ports I installed, but it was a couple screen fulls... The problem is that the output at the end, that displays necessary info and security info, is too long and overflows my default screen buffer... Can we at least use a PAGER to make it readable? Or print a command at the end that lets you reprint the info out so you can pass it through to pager? As the default stands, we might as well NOT print the info since it's so long and not readable [when you install a port that installed 10s of dependant ports].
