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:

>/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out of date maybe or should I use the Konsole man pages?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.  ;)
