[PLUG] Suggestions on merging diffs...

[Michael Bevilacqua <michael@bevilacqua.us>]

This may be a moot point to the majority of the Gentoo user base but
I've found a way to quickly knock out the manual merging of config's 
after an `emerge -u --deep world` .

First I read them into vimdiff(1) with the current working versions:

for i in `find /etc -iname '._cfg????_*'`; do vimdiff `echo $i | sed s/._cfg0000_//` $i ; done

Then I erase the ._cfg0000's I just reviewed/merged:

for i in `find /etc -iname '._cfg????_*'`; do rm $i; done

I'm interested in hearing if anyone else on the list has a more
efficient way of handling this process.
