Trueprint is a general purpose printing program. It tries to produce everything that anybody could need in a program printout without the need for large numbers of switches or pipelines. Trueprint can currently handle C, C++, Java, Perl, Verilog, shell (including ksh), Pascal, pseudo C, report files (trueprint report files), listing files, text files.

XPP is a graphical utility for managing printers and submitting print jobs. It interfaces with CUPS on the backend and allows the user to configure double sided printing, active tray, color adjustment, etc. It supports the command line flags of lpr as well. You will first need to configure a printer via CUPS to use XPP.

This program reads /var/db/pkg/local.sqlite and compares install timestamp with date in $FreeBSD header in the Makefile of the port. If there is no $FreeBSD header then it is assumed to be a beta port. Chucky also features a shar file backup feature, which is normally used to backup 'beta' development ports.

KPackageKit is the KDE interface for PackageKit. It features everything Gnome PackageKit does except: - install catalog; - service pack; - a D-Bus session interface. These items are not mandatory since they are more features of the GUI itself than a feature in PackageKit.

Mkreadmes is designed to be a very fast, flexible and easy-to-use alternative to the standard "make readmes" for building the README.html files for the FreeBSD Ports Collection, building the files in a fraction of the time of the standard method.

Manage your own packages build on a dedicated build system. The build system does the update of the ports tree, moving old packages out of the way, fetch and rebuild the packages you need. Its ports tree with packages is served to the production systems and desktops. On a system you can update installed ports with the clean build packages from the build system.

Here is a meta-port for a collection of tools that will help you manage your ports tree, both for installation, deinstallation, updating, and browsing. Many FreeBSD administrators and users find these tools to be helpful, especially when working with building ports from their sources.

Portal is a front-end to FreeBSD's package manipulation tool pkg(8). Currently, the application is a MVP (Minimum Viable Product) which provides only the following features: packages listing and searching, installation and deinstallation of packages, and filtering based on the package state.

portell is a program that allows FreeBSD users to view the description as given in its pkg-descr file for a specific port. If you want to know what the program "Foo" is, then you can type "portell foo" and portell will find its pkg-descr file and dump it on your display.

The portshaker-config port provides a simple config-based interface to generate and maintain a portshaker configuration throught the ports system. It is designed to ease using portshaker for users who want to merge portshaker powered ports overlays in their FreeBSD ports tree.
