Another good tool is genlop. Just type in genlop -c and it will tell |
| 33 |
you what is emerging, what number the package is and the estimated times |
| 34 |
as well. What number the package is looks something like this: |
| 35 |
emerging #4 of 8 packages. That tells you it is on package 4 out of 8 |
| 36 |
that will be emerged. The estimated time only works if the package has |
| 37 |
been emerged at least once before. |

Sorry, it is command line. It appears you have already discovered about |
| 40 |
everything else. lol |
