Very cool! There is one major regression from the previous implementation: it is twice as slow, at least on my system. You might want to try some profiling to track this down. In addition, I suspect that printing during the ebuild-processing phase (so printing starts earlier) as the previous implementation does would give the impression of speed. -- Thanks, Donnie Donnie Berkholz Sr. Developer, Gentoo Linux Blog: http://dberkholz.wordpress.com
