What this means is which version becomes the one most would consider the default, e.g. the one run without specifying any version. One example is the set of python ports, where there are (among others) python25, python26, and python30. The select action lets you set which of these becomes the version run when you simply use 'python'. <arguments> must include the group upon which to be acted, and may include a version if --set is used. --list List available versions for the group --set Select the given version for the group --show Show which version is currently selected for the group (default if none given) }}} -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/30063#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
