SYNOPSIS
port help [action | help-topic]
DESCRIPTION
port help opens the manpage for a given port action such as install, upgrade, selfupdate, etc. or a specific help topic like macports.conf. MacPorts even has help for its help feature. MacPorts will however not engage in higher level abstractions: There is no help on the help on the help.
