I'm looking to install that one from ports-2.0/mail/elm. Unfortunately, I never installed ports and don't really understand how to do that. My questions are: 1. How do I apply the patch? What file(s) this patch updates - where's this info? 2. Should I first apply the patch and then pre-configure/configure or what? 3. What is the general sequence of my actions when installing the port? Any info/hints/pointers to the appropriate documents will be greatly appreciated. Also, maybe someone can recommend any other/better mailer instead of elm (I believe, it's not too easy to install pine?). I'm running FreeBSD 950412-SNAP without XFree on this machine. Thanks in advance. -Serge splyaski@cmp.com
