The recently imposed "must be logged in" restriction is a response to increased bot traffic on the site. This affects search, commits, and vuxml pages.
Search engines are not blocked. Try using "site:www.freshports.org" and your search terms.
After the ports freeze to fix some stuff, the freeze is over. I have some work to do before FreshPorts can start processing commits again before it can start processing again. I've created an issue for that.

Description:
A tool to convert MS-DOS/ANSI.SYS text files to modern terminals. This tool converts MS-DOS text files using ANSI.SYS escape sequences to a format a modern terminal can display. The output will use a Unicode encoding of characters and only ANSI SGR escape sequences to set basic foreground and background colors, intensity and blinking attribute. The input is expected to use CP-437 or one of the other supported DOS codepages.
