Doug Barton 2fadfa2cfb For ports maintained by ports@FreeBSD.org, remove names and/or
e-mail addresses from the pkg-descr file that could reasonably
be mistaken for maintainer contact information in order to avoid
confusion on the part of users looking for support. As a pleasant
side effect this also avoids confusion and/or frustration for people
who are no longer maintaining those ports.

Icon is a high-level programming language with extensive facilities for
processing strings and structures. Icon has several novel features,
including expressions that may produce sequences of results, goal-directed
evaluation that automatically searches for a successful result, and string
scanning that allows operations on strings to be formulated at a high
conceptual level.
The language is described in R. E. Griswold and M. T. Griswold, The
Icon Programming Language, Prentice-Hall, Inc., Englewood Cliffs, NJ,
second edition, 1990.
