bash$ type tip
tip is /usr/bin/tip
bash$ ls /usr/src/usr.bin/tip
.               Makefile        NEWS            TODO            tip
..              Makefile.inc    README          libacu
bash$ 

Tip isn't a port or package, it's distributed as part of FreeBSD.  If
for some really strange reason you're not running FreeBSD, then you
can probably get it at:

  ftp.cdrom.com:/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/src/usr.bin/tip/...
