Neil,
My first message was:
Subject: fast CLI package-Changelog viewer
Body: Is there such one?
I agree, my English is ugly. I'll try to explain. Saying "viewer" I mean
something like this:
logviewer kdelibs
will "produce" the same output as, say,
less /usr/portage/kde-base/kdelibs/ChangeLog
You see, it is impossible to remember all packages' dirs. Of course, I
can use 'q' or 'eix' to find a dir and then type in a long 'less ...'
command. But, well, why do all these 'eix' and 'q' exist? I think to
save some users' time. Is my intention more clear now? :-)
