I know, but I want to make sure that I have the possibility to choose 
what I want to update, and there are some ports I really want to update 
by hand.  (tmda for example)  So I have the

vi /root/work/update

line for removeing some ports I want to update by hand.  (Normally I do 
that before I close the vi)
