pkg query

[user00]

Is there a short-hand syntax for querying all available information about a package?

 

[Tieks]

pkg info -f <package name>

 

[jmos]

A little bit more: pkg info -fADdrklbB <package name>
You can use an alias for the "short-hand" thing

I was intimidated by the query command and felt it was over the top. If info does it then it should suffice.
