This is a sample of my file.  This should help.

root@smoker / #

Note the ones with the number symbol are commented out and ignored by
portage.  Also, if you want to unmask without using the equal, or
greater/less than signs, leave off the version number on the end.  I'm
not sure what you mean by a "flag"?

That help?
