Simple, do this... pkg_version -c > update_ports.sh Then go in update_ports.sh and you will see a list up ports that need to be updated (and their dependencies will be in there too). Delete the top few lines, add '#!/bin/sh'; do chmod 755 update_ports.sh, then do ./update_ports.sh, and viola!, updated ports.
