Indeed, my own notes are exactly the same as here.
As far as the other debates on how to most concisely express the idea,
my notes to myself read as the result rather than say "how to edit
config files". Spill the contents to the screen and you need to see
that (or similar for different locale than US).
daid@flux ~ % cat /etc/env.d/02locale
LANG=3D"en_US.UTF-8"
Is there any kind of project using even a simple GUI like zenity for
doing config file editing in Gentoo? I could use some good way to
organize that stuff some days.
Cheers,
