Get notified when packages are built

A new feature has been added. FreshPorts already tracks package built by the FreeBSD project. This information is displayed on each port page. You can now get an email when FreshPorts notices a new package is available for something on one of your watch lists. However, you must opt into that. Click on Report Subscriptions on the right, and New Package Notification box, and click on Update.

Finally, under Watch Lists, click on ABI Package Subscriptions to select your ABI (e.g. FreeBSD:14:amd64) & package set (latest/quarterly) combination for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Description:
Backfract is an animated wallpaper program for Unix with X windows. It fills your background window with a fractal image, then every 15 minutes it will update the image by zooming in or out. As it zooms in, it uses a simple heuristic to try to stay with "interesting" scenes. WWW: http://www.igoweb.org/~wms/comp/backfract/
