Seamonkey and Firefox both have a "jit" USE flag, which I doubt has anything to do with lua/luajit. "lua" and "luajit" appear to be languages. They should have flags just like fortran and gcj. It appear that the default is "-luajit", and "luajit" turns it on. BTW... grep ":luajit " /usr/portage/profiles/use.local.desc | wc -l ...gives 17 hits. It looks like a good candidate for "globalization". Note the trailing space. There are 2 for USE flag "luajittex" for app-text/texlive-core and dev-texlive/texlive-basic -- Walter Dnes <[email protected]> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
