Surely being able to use it and play around with it for real is better than seeing some not very helpful textual examples pasted in...

For that matter, the Paludis ebuild in the overlay makes use of suggestions, although it's only for one small set of things. - -- Ciaran McCreesh -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAk/dyD0ACgkQ96zL6DUtXhFrUgCgkxzRAgqaDf6Al1/Zp9n7wRJL pRYAoOBw7143Mch81VvBVsK3Us0FilRM =JGNo -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
