Description Pascal Stumpf 2010-09-16 12:20:00 UTC 
At the moment, the source for these programs resides in src/contrib/ncurses/progs. However, theyre being neither built nor installed. I think people should not be forced to install the port just for these small progs. 

Theres been a patch submitted in bin/71801 but not committed. (And I dont think its a valid solution to just point people to the port/package when the sources are already in base, ready to be built without too much effort.)
