'emerge esearch', then use 'esync', which updates your package list & finally lists all updated packages with colors to show those installed. I use it every week with an extra check via 'update -Dup world', which helps in deciding the order in which to emerge packages. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban & Community Studies TRANSIT `-O----------O---' University of Toronto -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
