Hi, I think the following line could be added to the output of "emerge --help config" command: bash$ find /etc -iname '._cfg????_*' | while read new; do old=`echo $new | sed s/\._cfg0000_//`; diff -u -w $old $new; cp -i $new $old; done
etc-update does that kind of fancy stuff for you ... the added shell stuff will just confuse many people imo ... not to mention someone randomly testing it out might overwrite files they dont want updated ;)
Hmm, actually I've always missed the last sentence in the "emerge --help config" output mentioning briefly etc-update. Thank for noting that, just decide yourself if for blind people wouldn't it be better to mention etc-update in the output twice... ;)
As noted in comments... It's already noted.
