Sometimes I want to browse available packages for
upgrading, then copy down the names, so I can emerge
them later. Porthole should have some way to do this.

    I believe what you were trying to do is explained in one of
    the other bugs you submitted (the -u option). I do not know
    how easy what you are asking for can be accomplished. At
    this time there are a lot of other problems and coding that
    have a much higher precedence.

    I think you must misunderstand me. How could it be difficult
    to iterate through checked packages in current window, add
    their names and versions to a string, then copy that string
    to the clipboard? I don't imagine it would take more than 15
    lines of code. This is all this request is asking for, and
    no, it was not explained in your response to my -u request.
