I just checked, again, directory /usr/share/examples/cvsup and was directed to the Handbook section on CVSup, A6.

But I checked and found nothing with "modula" in ports; later used the search on modula-3 and found ezm3.

I ran "make missing" and "make all-depends-list" in net/cvsup directory and got no dependencies in either case.  No Modula-3?

Anyway, from what I read, csup is better, and I think I can use the same supfile and same server that I would use for cvsup?

I've heard of Modula-2 and 3, but those languages were never widely used as far as I know.
