NAME
     Keywords - files to extend the number of keywords avaiable for plist

DESCRIPTION
     pkg-create(8) and pkg-register(8) can parse a plist file, which describes
     the content of a package to be created/registered.  The plist format is
     documented in the pkg-create(8) manpage .

     Keywords are files that extends the number of keywords available to a
     plist.  Those files are in UCL format.

     The format is the following:

     actions
             Array of actions which defines what do to the argument(s) of the
             keywords.  Valid actions are:

             dir     Consider the argument of the keyword as a directory and
                     register it as such in the package

             file    Consider the argument of the keyword as a regular file
                     and register it as such in the package

     arguments
             Boolean which tells pkg(8) if it should parse the argument of the
             keyword or not.  If true then pkg will make split it using spaces
             as token and make the argument available to:

             actions
                     Any action will now accept a number that will represent
                     the argument passed to the action via parenthesis.

             shell and lua scripts
                     New variables will be available to scripts: %<number>.

     attributes
             attributes that can be set to a file or a directory depending if
             actions has been set.  It will take the precedence over the
             attributes that may have been set when calling the keyword.
             Attributes can be:

             owner string
                     Name of the owner of the file or directory.

             group string
                     Name of the group of the file or directory.

             mode string
                     mode of the file or directory, this mode can be in
                     numeric or string form.

     pre-deinstall-lua
             Lua script to be run during the pre-deinstall phase.  It will be

ESCAPE SEQUENCE
     If line contains any of the following sequences somewhere in it, they

     set to /usr/local and the last extracted file was bin/emacs.
     %F      Expands to the last filename extracted (as specified), in the
             example case bin/emacs.
     %D      Expand to the current directory prefix, as set with @cwd, in the
             example case /usr/local.
     %B      Expand to the "basename" of the fully qualified filename, that is
             the current directory prefix, plus the last filespec, minus the
             trailing filename.  In the example case, that would be
             /usr/local/bin.
     %f      Expand to the filename part of the fully qualified name, or the
             converse of %B, being in the example case, emacs.
