Dear Folk,

	What is the meaning of the last message below. Please ignore my lack of 
close reading shown in (11).

===========================================================================
jbb at pinball3:~
(10): % sudo port selfupdate
--->  Updating the ports tree
--->  Updating MacPorts base sources using rsync
MacPorts base version 1.9.0 installed,
MacPorts base version 1.9.0 downloaded.
--->  MacPorts base is already the latest version

The ports tree has been updated. To upgrade your installed ports, you 
should run
   port upgrade outdated
jbb at pinball3:~
(11): % sudo port update outdated
Unrecognized action "update"
jbb at pinball3:~
(12): % sudo port upgrade outdated
Error: No ports matched the given expression
jbb at pinball3:~
(13): %
==========================================================================

	I assume the 'given expression' is 'outdated.' Must I upgrade each app 
individually?

	Shalom,

	John B. Brown.
