Description:
The zeroer utility can be used to wipe empty space on a disk. In contrary to dd, zeroer does not wipe existing files on a partition. It overwrites the unallocated disk space around existing files, which means that deleted files cannot be restored after processing a certain partition with zeroer. The utility's principle consists in writing huge zero-padded memory blocks to a file. To a certain extent this works similar to dd, however zeroer dynamically reduces the blockwriter's buffer size when the filesystem is going to be full.

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.
