Got it, thanks, I think it was the bunk connection at the coffee  
shop.  I have a working port, what is the next step in the submission  
process?

Here is my final portfile, if anyone wants to critique, please do.

# $Id$
PortSystem 1.0
PortGroup perl5 1.0

perl5.setup             File-ReadBackwards 1.04

description             This module reads a file backwards line by line.

long_description        It is simple to use, memory efficient and  
fast. \
			It supports both an object and a tied handle interface. \
										\
			It is intended for processing log and other similar text \
			files which typically have their newest entries appended \
			to them. By default files are assumed to be plain text and \
			have a line ending appropriate to the OS. But you can set \
			the input record separator string on a per file basis.
