if someone wants to add FreeBSD base/world updates to crontab, so ...

    % grep -v -E '(^$|^#)' /etc/freebsd-update.conf

I changed the components to be updated, and that's it; no kernel update, no
need to reboot.
of course human interaction will be needed sometime to check for kernel
updates and perform an assisted system upgrade.

I just tested it around here, and that's what I got (after running from
crontab);
