You can put BATCH=yes in your /etc/make.conf
The settings for each port (if it has something to config) are stored
in /var/db/ports/{port dir name}/options (just in case you want to see
what the port assumed).
If you want to configure ports (with than ncurses blues screen)
sometimes and assume defaults in other cases perhaps you should try
portupgrade -m BATCH=yes <package> on a need basis.
As David suggested you can always do "make config-recursive install
clean", to answer all the option questions before the port builds.
Warmly,
Javier
