#15434: RFE: port search should search name, description and long_description ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: raimue@… | Owner: raimue@… Type: enhancement | Status: reopened Priority: Normal | Milestone: MacPorts 1.7.1 Component: base | Version: 1.6.0 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: | ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Comment(by clayton@…): I would agree that the new search can be helpful but it is bringing back way to much information. Another example is the ack (p5-app-ack) port. {{{ $ port search ack ... Found 673 ports. }}} That more than fills up the buffer on my terminal :). I like the idea of having the options for searching --name, --description and --long- description. I'm inclined to say that it should search --name by default also. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/15434#comment:12> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
