Greetings. This tool is a cross between xargs and a BSD tool called apply. With it you can do things like xapply '(cd %1 && make all)' */ Change context to each directory in the current directory in turn and run make all. xapply -f 'diff %1 ../version5/%1' manifest | more Compare the files in manifest to the ones with the same name in ../version5 xapply -p/dev/null -f 'diff %1 %2' manifest1 checklist1 Compare (with diff) each file in manifest1 to the same file in checklist1. Substitute /dev/null for missing files on the end. {This is only useful if the input files are known to have the arguments in a stable order.} [More examples appear in the README.] I suggest it go in app-misc/xapply. It depends on mkcmd and msrc0, which I've submitted.

(this is an automated message based on filtering criteria that matched this bug) 'EBUILD' is in the KEYWORDS which should mean that there is a ebuild attached to this bug. This bug is assigned to maintainer-wanted which means that it is not in the main tree. Hello, The Gentoo Team would like to firstly thank you for your ebuild submission. We also apologize for not being able to accommodate you in a timely manner. There are simply too many new packages. Allow me to use this opportunity to introduce you to Gentoo Sunrise. The sunrise overlay[1] is a overlay for Gentoo which we allow trusted users to commit to and all users can have ebuilds reviewed by Gentoo devs for entry into the overlay. So, the sunrise team is suggesting that you look into this and submit your ebuild to the overlay where even *you* can commit to. =) Because this is a mass message, we are also asking you to be patient with us. We anticipate a large number of requests in a short time. Thanks, On behalf of the Gentoo Sunrise Team, Jeremy.
