Jordan K. Hubbard aa1478bbd2 Fix a problem where pkg_manage refused to allow the user to select a
full directory hierarchy, as is the format of the new ports collection.
It used the old "all packages in one directory" paradigm, which is wrong for
ports now.

There are several fields in the current window, you can move from
one to the other by pressing 'TAB' and 'SHIFT-TAB'.
In the left selection list, mark the packages you wish to install.
Pressing space will mark the current package, '*' will mark all
packages, '-' will unmark all packages.
To view information about a package press either 'ENTER' for
a one line description, or 'F2' for a longer description.
The right selection list lists the already installed packages.
Here you can also view information about these by using the same
keys as described above.
After having marked the packages of your choice, move to the
<Install marked> button with 'TAB' or 'SHIFT-TAB' and press
'ENTER' to actually install them. Before installation a check
will be made if a selected package is already installed. If so,
you will be informed of this and the package will be skipped.
