Hello, |

In /usr/portage/sci-chemistry, there are lots |
| 5 |
of software offerings. My son is new to Gentoo |
| 6 |
but now I let him go root and install packages. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
Does Gentoo maintain an online index with brief |
| 9 |
description of each so one can make a guess as to |
| 10 |
which packages might be useful to him? |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Is there some slick way to install all of the packages |
| 13 |
in this dir? (drawing a blank --most-likely-TGIF-syndrome) |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
and then go down a list (index) and test which ones |
| 16 |
he would want to keep? |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
suggestions are most welcome. |

I'm looking for suggestions better than: |
| 22 |
eix <package> one at a time.... |
