7e1c3e6035 Prefer the use of service(1) to explicit invocation of /etc/rc.d 
scripts: service(1) puts things in one place and abstracts them.  Also, it's less
typing and easier to autocomplete.

While here modernize script examples by removing the ".sh" suffix.

6fa4d6ceac CVS is going away soon. Suggesting it for ports, -STABLE, or -CURRENT, 
even with a deprecation warning, is a disservice to new users.

This change removes cvsup, csup, and CVS references.  SVN URLs are also
changed to the preferred form and links to the SVN mirrors are added.
