warning: I am going to start using this blog as a note taking place.
misc notes on playing with freebsd from a linux user’s perspective:
pkg_add is the apt/emerge
pkg_add -r pkgname (-r is remote fetch)
(do not know how to do a search)
After installing a new app, run `rehash’ … this fixes up new binaries in the path so they can run.

You could also use portupgrade (/usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade).”
To make a search :
% make search key=”
in /usr/ports.
if you installed the ports you should install “portinstall”:
portupgrade
portinstall
and with some nice scripts you can automate updates :)
