   useful?  Like a summary of commonly used commands?  What it does

   is really not very useful at all unless you are already a pkgsrc  
expert.

   (fetch-list, update, replace, pkg_rolling-replace, license stuff,
   package option commands, etc).

Yeah, a good point, and one I agree with completely - it's hardly
"help" if you need extensive background information to know what
to type.
I'll include tech-pkg at pkgsrc.org on this reply - the guys who did the
"bmake help" all read that list.  tech-pkg people - what do you think?
