Description

The Guide should explain port dir, port file and port edit

The manpage (man port) does explain these.

A good place for this might be in the Portfile Patches section. There, we tell the user to copy the Portfile and then edit it, but we never tell the user where the Portfile is so that they can accomplish this.
