========================
FreeBSD Packages
========================

These are the packages I typically install for a workstation; this is after selecting an "X windows kernel developer" base system with ``sshd``, linux binary support, and NTP configured::

    bash
    vim
    xmms-wma
    xmms-flac
    xmms-faad2
    xmms
    unzip
    bzip2
    emacs
    mplayer
    pork
    xpdf
    ctorrent
    teTeX
    ipython-py25
    nginx
    firefox
    fluxbox
    git
    subversion
    alpine
    screen
    python
    vlc
    xzgc
    lyx
    wget
    e2fsprogs
    gtkchtheme
    portupgrade

The following are large and/or "optional"::

    xfce
    apache
    py25-matplotlib
    py25-scipy
    py-numpy
    gimp
    mit-scheme
    eclipse
    pidgin

The following are added by download::

    java ("Diablo Latte" jdk from FreeBSD Foundation)
   
Bulk Installation
-----------------

``pkg_add`` will fail with a ``getcwd`` error if you try to install many
packages with the same command. Instead, once you have ``bash`` installed,
you want to do something like::

    $ for i in `echo vim screen python blah blah blah`; do pkg_add -r $i; done

Note that with many packages it's almost impossible to avoid installing X 
windows; I think there's a flag for this somewhere.
