I hate to tell you but portmaster already has the ability to restart
after an interrupted -af. See the man page regarding the -R option. So
you can do this the first time: portmaster -Daf

Then do this the second (or more) time: portmaster -DGRaf

The one caveat is that you don't want to run any other portmaster
commands in between since it will remove all the flags when it exits
successfully.


hth,

Doug
