Is man:emerge in Konqueror the same as man emerge in a command line?  I
usually do my man pages in Konqueror is why I ask.  I assume they are
the same.  I didn't see a lot of examples like they gave in that man
page.  Maybe I'm getting blind.  o_o  I know my eyes take me a while
when I first get out of bed.

When I read the man in Konqueror, this was the only mention of package.use:

>USE variables may be specified on the command line to override those specified in the default locations, letting you avoid using some dependencies you may not want to have. USE flags specified on the command line are NOT remembered. For example, USE="-X -gnome" emerge mc will emerge mc with those USE settings. If you want those USE settings to be more permanent, you can put them in /etc/portage/package.use instead.

I found that with the ctrl + f find thingy.  It was the only one.  Am I
out of date maybe or should I use the Konsole man pages?

I like the sig.  Top posting got me in a mess when I first came here
though.  Some don't like rebels I guess.  ;)
