This program provides an interactive interface for the pkg_add(1) tool.
It's purpose is to search for a package pattern, making easier for the user
to find a package and install it. This is not a clone of the pkg_add(1) tool.
It uses pkg_add(1) to install packages while providing an interactive
interface, so the user could easily choose and install a given package.
The pkg_add_it(1) tool supports local and remote pattern search:
* Local pattern search - recursively scanning a directory for
a given package pattern
* Remote pattern search - accomplished by scannig the INDEX file
for every package that matches the pattern
To learn more about the pkg_add_it(1) tool read the manual page.
