The words "known-good port" represent the blank that I'm trying to
fill. I want to be able to search for text inside the port's
long-description. I'd like to discover the "known-good" spreadsheets,
etc that are in MacPorts. At present I have to go to the the freebsd
ports web site, search there, then see if any of the ports that I've
found are available in MacPorts.
