For install:
You installed torsocks, which is part of the Tor Project. If you have non-local or non-standard Tor SOCKS server location, please edit /usr/local/etc/tor/torsocks.conf To run most programs through Tor launch them like this: torsocks [any executable] For example you can use ssh to a some.host.com by doing: torsocks ssh username@some.host.com -l <user> or launch pidgin by doing: torsocks pidgin ==SECURITY WARNING== Please note that torsocks does not in general guarantee that all network connections made using torsocks will always go through Tor, and not directly through the unsecured network. There are many ways how general programs can purposefully or inadvertently defeat torsocks. One way is to reset the environment variable for the child process. You can use ex. wireshark to see where network packets are actually sent by the program in question.

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.
