<https://github.com/ehaupt/fastest_pkg/blob/5bd4e8c1794cfaa7e0a3231a50568b14e021417d/fastest_pkg#L138-L139>

A user in FreeBSD Forums observed that the post-test example states 'latest'
without checking whether there's a preference for quarterly. 

Please, can the script be improved? 

To detect the preference near the tail of the  
              url value within 
              /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf 
and for the output to state    latest       if    latest is preferred; 
                               quarterly    if quarterly is preferred; 
                               release_0    if release_0 is preferred; 
                               … and so on. 

Thanks
