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 .

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:
