\fIqkeyword\fR allows various searches based on KEYWORDS. Some uses are
aimed at Gentoo developers, to allow querying which packages would be
available, or are candidate for keywording.
.P
By default, the entire tree is traversed. Since this process can be
slow, or result in too many results, the match arguments can be used to
reduce the set of packages evaluated. \fB-p\fR and \fB-c\fR match
package name and category respectively. They can both be used at the
same time, but \fB-p\fR accepts regular atom format, including version
and/or range. Hence, \fB-p\fR can be used to set both category as well
as package in one go. The \fB-m\fR maintainer match, while reducing the
resulting set, is likely to slow down the query processing since the
metadata.xml file has to be read for each package examined. It is best
used in combination with \fB-p\fR or \fB-c\fR.
.P
\fIqkeyword\fR uses the keyword found in the configured profile (ARCH)
for its queries. This keyword can be overridden by giving the desired
keyword as argument. Note that this does not change the profile in use,
which most notably can result in incorrect masks being applied for the
\fB-T\fR and \fB-S\fR options.
