A Package for Analyzing Lattice Polytopes (PALP) is a set of C programs for
calculations with lattice polytopes and applications to toric geometry.
It contains routines for vertex and facet enumeration, computation of incidences
and symmetries, as well as completion of the set of lattice points in the convex
hull of a given set of points. In addition, there are procedures specialised to
reflexive polytopes such as the enumeration of reflexive subpolytopes, and
applications to toric geometry and string theory, like the computation of Hodge
data and fibration structures for toric Calabi-Yau varieties. The package is
well tested and optimised in speed as it was used for time consuming tasks such
as the classification of reflexive polyhedra in 4 dimensions and the creation
and manipulation of very large lists of 5-dimensional polyhedra.
While originally intended for low-dimensional applications, the algorithms work
in any dimension and our key routine for vertex and facet enumeration compares
well with existing packages.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

Palp 2.12 has been rerolled on Aug. 26th, but only uploaded some days ago.
Full diff is available at:
<https://people.freebsd.org/~thierry/palp-2.12_20200819_20200826.diff>:
it contains changes in puts/printf and in makefile, which now requires gmake.
