tions:

xps -e -c devel python
Show all ports whose names contain 'glib' and are installed:
xps -i yes glib
Show all ports maintained by <author> in category <category>:

* The code that matches installed packages with indexed ports needs a
lot of work, expect bugs in this area.
* xps is broken in systems migrated to pkgng. Expect this to be solved
in a newer version.
