25 Speaking of USE flags this is a PERFECT example of when to
26 enable/disable a USE flag. If I was Nick and PREFERRED to start profuse
27 without gtk support (aka ncurses) then I would re-emerge profuse WITHOUT
28 the gtk USE flag. Thanks for giving some people an example of when to
29 enable/disable USE flags, Nick.

31 DISCLAIMER: I don't use profuse but I assume that the gtk USE flag does
32 exactly what I have explained. ;)
