    39  '''NOTE:''' This needs a definition of the "Port Select" mechanism. i.e. explain what it does.
    40 It does NOT produce the equivalent path of the path command below.
    41 Which begs the question -- does the "OR" need to be "AND" or is the path command completely redundant.
    42 I have assumed "AND" as the PATH needed to be set for me.

     39Also, mysql56 now uses the `''port select''` mechanism to manage the creation of symlinks in

    5546{{{
    5647$ sudo port select mysql mysql56
    … …  
    5849$ export PATH=$PATH:/opt/local/lib/mysql56/bin
