I suspected the flag might enable plugins and considered finding out what it actually does. But I didn't bother because I don't use rxvt myself and that specific wasn't the point of my post anyway. I still maintain the perl is not a good name for that flag. It does not describe what the flag accomplishes, it describes an implementation detail of how it is used. USE=perl communicates very little; it might communicate a lot to you if you know the guts of the app, but very little to the casual observer wanting to find out what rxvt is. I run into this kind of thing all the time, and not just with USE flags, it's endemic amongst coders. The problem is best described like so high level description should expose what your code does, not how it does it. I understand why coders make this kind of mistake - expediency. It's easier to re-use the existing perl flag than to make a whole new one in use.local.desc For rxvt, a suitable flag name would be plugins -- Alan McKinnnon alan.mckin...@gmail.com
