Drawterm(8) is not a Plan 9 program. It is a program that users of
non-Plan 9 systems can use to establish graphical cpu(1) connections with
Plan 9 CPU servers. Just as a real Plan 9 terminal does, drawterm serves
its local name space as well as some devices (the keyboard, mouse, and
screen) to a remote CPU server, which mounts this name space on /mnt/term
and starts a shell. Typically, either explicitly or via the profile, one
uses the shell to start rio(1).

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.

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.

Add USES=xorg USES=gl, ports categories n
Add USES=xorg and USES=gl to ports in categories starting with 'n'.
While here, try to sprinkle other USES (mostly gnome and sdl) as needed.
When there is a do-install target, do not use a post-install target, do
everything at once. Sometime, rename post-install into a options helper
target.
I did not fix ports that were such a mess that I could not figure out
what they really wanted to do. I also did not change ports that had
some version of an auto-plist code in post-install, for the same reason.
