Yes for me it is mostly more convenient, especially when javascript |
| 28 |
comes into play. Also learning never stops. The command `eshowkw`, which |
| 29 |
Mick mentioned, is new to me even if its output is very similar to |
| 30 |
`equery`. |

BTW, there is a little symbol legend when you click on the question mark |

above the arch column header: |

<https://packages.gentoo.org/about/help#keyword-legend> |
| 36 |

and it shows a not used symbol for masked versions. Maybe just another |
| 38 |
one from the joker. ;-) |
