+One of the most powerful tools of <c>portage-utils</c> is <c>qsearch</c>. This |
| 63 |
+tool allows you to search your Portage tree much faster than default <c>emerge |
| 64 |
+-s</c>. |

+<p> |
| 99 |
+There is also a tool that allows you to extract useful information from your |
| 100 |
+<path>emerge.log</path> file. It's called <c>qlop</c> and it can be useful when |
| 101 |
+you want to estimate package compilation times or compare with your friends |
| 102 |
+whose computer compiles faster. It also allows you to check what's compiling at |
| 103 |
+the moment and how long it will take - which is handy when you're working in the |
| 104 |
+console and don't have any other means to check it. |
