Is there any interest in creating a MacPort of this project? http://sqlfairy.sourceforge.net/
I don't know perl well enough to know what's involved.
That's just fine -- MacPorts doesn't use Perl! :) Portfiles are written in Tcl, which is a lot more like writing a configuration file than a script. It's easy. If you'd like to write a portfile for SQLFairy we'd be happy to accept it. Best way to get started is to read the old docs, and look at existing portfiles to see how they work (type "port edit mysql5" or "port edit php5" for some complicated examples, or "port edit pkgconfig" or "port edit cairo" for some simple ones). See also the portfile manpage ("man portfile"). The old docs are in the archive: http://web.archive.org/web/20060427120406/darwinports.opendarwin.org/ docs/
