1 Always when this comes back up I wish portage didn't categorize
2 in terms of an arbitrary fixed tree, but in terms of a flat list
3 (or alphabetical tree) of packages, where each package has one
4 or more keywords. In this case, scheme would have keywords like:
5 "dev lang lisp scheme" to show that it's a development package,
6 a computer language, a lisp (variant) and scheme. The user would
7 say e.g. 'emerge search lisp' to find it. Similarly
8 'emerge search editor' would find both emacs and vim.
