1.- Have a hard copy of porter's Handbook
2.- Print out the Makefile of your port, become familiar with it as you are reading the handbook
3.- Print out the following man pages: diff(1), patch(1), PKG_VERSION(1) and send-pr(1)
4.- Print out file bsd.port.mk which is located at /usr/ports/MK/ in your system
5.- Update your system and install the latest port. That will show the latest info on your port
6.- I also download the source of the port. Look around and try to see how it all works
Last point makes me think, if there is a bug in the program, who has to fix it?
developer, committer or maintainer...
Also, I am thinking of getting into learning C language.
Can anybody recommend me a good book?
