New description: Please implement port reload (or port restart) command, which will do something similar to: {{{ port unload && port load }}} optional: without disabling/enabling OSX launchd autostart. -- Comment (by ryandesign@…): At the moment, `port load` and `port unload` simply directly call `launchctl`. To my knowledge, there is no `launchctl` equivalent for a restart or reload command. Perhaps we should check if there is any literature on the best method to restart a launchd-controlled service. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/42487#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
