8 Was just about to suggest the same thing. It doesn't even have to be gentoo
9 (too long, i remember that redhat-config-network was a crappy name to type).
10 It could just be g-config-<package>, or even gconfig-package.

12 Although gentoo-* has the advantage of just hitting gentoo-<tab> and getting
