I just realized my Gentoo has no 'at'

I searched but couldn't find as google will not consider less than 3 char words and equery only works on installed apps. Web interface to portage didn't reveal it either.

Where the heck is at at?

I would think it was one of the coreutils...wrongly it seems.

Many query tools accept basic regular expressions, namely ^ to begin a line and $ to end it.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ eix ^at$
* sys-process/at
     Available versions:  3.1.8-r11 3.1.8-r12
     Installed:           none
Homepage: ftp://jurix.jura.uni-sb.de/pub/jurix/source/chroot/appl/at/
     Description:         Queues jobs for later execution

This is more generally applicable than the other example of the -e flag.

Thanks,
Donnie
