4 People,
5
6 I'm working on a new portage browser, and I was looking for ideas from USERS, that's why I'm
7 posting here.
8
9 I've never found a program that would allow me to browse portage categories, then packages, showing
10 in one window description, version, etc, etc.
11
12 Thus, I'm working on one now, but I want to develop something that will run in console and X, too,
13 like suse's yast.
14
15 So, I would like to know:
16
17 1) do you prefer a console, a GUI, or both?
18 2) what additional functionality would you like? (mask/unmask packages, install/remove, emerge
19 command generator [much like nmapfe], etc)
20
21 If you have any idea regarding development (because of the both console and X-compatible
22 script/program), please let me know. If not, I may end up writing an API, and two different programs.
23
24 Sincerely,
25
