In the case of net/httping it provides a ncurses based frontend.
Looking at other ports 'NCURSES frontend' might be more suitable:

/usr/ports/security/pinentry/Makefile:NCURSES_DESC=     Curses frontend
/usr/ports/mail/mutt/Makefile:NCURSES_DESC=     Ncurses support
/usr/ports/astro/gpsd/Makefile:NCURSES_DESC=            Build with ncurses(3)
/usr/ports/audio/mous/Makefile:NCURSES_DESC=            Ncurses frontend
/usr/ports/sysutils/conky/Makefile:NCURSES_DESC=                Use ncurses to draw on terminals
/usr/ports/lang/fpc-units/Makefile:NCURSES_DESC=        Interface to ncurses library
/usr/ports/multimedia/vlc/Makefile:NCURSES_DESC=        ncurses (console) interface

Thoughts?
