If you would like to search for a port, you can do so easily by saying (in /usr/mports):
make search name="<name>"
or:
make search key="<keyword>"
which will generate a list of all ports matching
make search name="gtk*"
To use packages instead, use the mport command to install. You can find out what pacakges are available on the midnightbsd app store http://app.midnightbsd.org/
You can also learn about package builds and their progress https://www.midnightbsd.org/magus/
To create packages, one must use the magus software, which is included in Tools/magus Tools/lib and so on.
