First bracket: |

[???] The first letter, "I", is shown if a package is installed. The |
| 25 |
second letter, "P" is shown, if a package is in the portage tree but |
| 26 |
not installed. The third letter, "O", is shown if a package is in the |
| 27 |
overlay tree but not installed. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Second bracket: |
| 30 |
[??] The first letter "M" is shown if the package is masked. The |
| 31 |
second spot can have either "~" or "-". The former means that the |
| 32 |
ebuild is in testing (i.e. ~arch). I don't quite remember what the "-" |
| 33 |
is for. |
