Hi, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
the question is: is it really necessary? If I want to add a new entry |
| 4 |
into this file I just call echo "category/package myflags" >> |
| 5 |
/etc/portage/package.use and if I want to edit them I just call my |
| 6 |
favorite editor, use its search capabilities and change the line. |
| 7 |
So I don't really see the benefit of a command line tool, since I |
| 8 |
still need to write flags, package and everything and the tools I'm |
| 9 |
using now (mostly echo, grep and vim) to do this are not very |
| 10 |
complicated and most of the typing goes to the use flags and package |
| 11 |
name anyway. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Just my opinion. |

Best regards |
