VMware tools support FreeBSD _guest_ OS running on VMware Workstation.
Beware, this port is _not_ for FreeBSD _host_ OS.
VMware tools for FreeBSD consist of vmware-toolbox which supports
seamless operation between the Host and the Guest OS, dual-boot
configulation files, and special XFree86 3.x server for Guest OS.
However, we cannot install dual-boot configuration since it requires
to modify /etc files.
This ports will install vmware-toolbox to your computer, and
XFree86 X server if you set XFREE86_VERSION to 3 in /etc/make.conf,
If you already use XFree86 4.1.0 or later, you may use 'vmware'
driver for X server. Vmware-guestd is installed as a separate port,
ports/emulators/vmware-guestd, but this port install guestd automatically.
