bfb211a9a5 Replace PATCH_PRFX with a more generic DIST_SUBDIR. If it is set to
"foo", what this does is:

(1) Put all distfiles and patchfiles in /usr/ports/distfiles/foo

(2) Go to ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/distfiles/foo when the
    master site is down

When your port has a lot of dist/patchfiles, or has a file that does
not have a very port-specific name (e.g., "Makefile"), set this
variable instead of redefining DISTDIR.  (If you redefine DISTDIR, (1)
will work but (2) will not.)

Agreed that it's a good idea by:	adam

a3bec8558e Add an Italian keyboard entry. I'm not exactly sure if it's ISO standard
since I've no idea what the ISO standard for Italian keyboards is, but we
can always adjust it later and this is better than the nothing we had before.

680a50eedd Recommend installing additional port documents to ${PREFIX}/share/doc,
conditional to ${NOPORTDOCS} (commented out by default in /etc/make.conf).

013d83681a Add NOPORTDOCS, similar to NOMANCOMPRESS. It prohibits additional
port documentation (which can be things like postscript manuals
describing every single of the 65,536 options) from being installed
into ${PREFIX}/share/doc.

f4f3d81bd0 Delete all references to the variable ${KEYWORD} that never quite flew.
(Sorry Jordan, but your other idea (${CATEGORIES}) was a major hit.)

Also remove the keyword field in the INDEX line and replace it with
two columns: build-time dependencies and run-time dependencies.  They
are both list of package names (minus the ".tgz").

986c4ed5dd Replace absolute pathnames with variables, so that
(1) people can have weird paths and it will still work, and

(2) if you really need to use /usr/local/bin/cp instead of /bin/cp,
    you can do that by changing only one line.

050a20a86a Add a description of how to setup sendmail for use with UUCP.
Ideally, this should go into the ``mail'' section of the handbook, but
i don't have the time to write all of this right now, so i've put it
into the FAQ.

ec145aa7ae Fixed Wolfram Schneider's entry and added Bill Fenner's info
so that the developer section isn't garbaged up.

Suggestion: anytime you mess with the handbook, build it
and actually look at the result with your favorite browser, since
a one character typo can mess up the whole thing.
