That would create '=foo-1.1' and then fail trying to read 'bar-1.0'. It's rather: emerge '>=foo-1.1' '<bar-1.0' > I think your example is working against you*.* > > The current syntax is much easier to read than the > quote-and-whitespace-tracking horror of your example :-P It's no less quoting than in the current case. And it could be simply extended to supporting quoting-less syntax, e.g.: emerge foo -gt 1.1 bar -lt 1.0 -- Best regards, Michał Górny
