You might want to look at "make config-recursive" running inside the
port directory.
e.g.

cd /usr/ports/x11/kde4; make config-recursive

This will make port display the options menu of the current port and
dependency's options menu. Additionally, "make fetch-recursive" would
fetch all the needed files to compile the port into dist directory.

Do take note that if you have set any options in the port directory,
those options menu will NOT appear again. If you need to clear all the
options, use "make clean-recursive" instead.
