FreeBSD emulators : vmware-tools3

VMware tools for guest OS (for VMware 3.x, FreeBSD version)

 VMware tools support FreeBSD _guest_ OS running on VMware Workstation.
Beware, this port is _not_ for FreeBSD _host_ OS.

VMware tools for FreeBSD consist of vmware-toolbox which supports
seamless operation between the Host and the Guest OS, dual-boot
configulation files, and special XFree86 3.x server for Guest OS.
However, we cannot install dual-boot configuration since it requires
to modify /etc files.

This ports will install vmware-toolbox to your computer.  You may use 'vmware'
driver for X server.  Vmware-guestd is installed as a separate port,
ports/emulators/vmware-guestd3, but this port install guestd automatically.

Since there seems to be some confusion, for the record: BROKEN is reserved for ports that don't work. This will prevent users from installing the port, but please note that ports marked as BROKEN will still be built by bento IGNORE is reserved for ports that should not be built for one reason or another (including bento).
