whats emerged on my system

i was wondering if theres a way to get emerge (or some other program) to tell you what is installed/merged on your system. is such a thing possible on gentoo? perhaps even a log file?

qpkg --help, man qpkg, man ecat ecat --help

and a nice one is to look through the world file, that will tell you what you explicitly wanted, but not the dependences.

Genlop is handy for this kind of thing also.
emerge genlop
genlop -l

where is the world file? genlop isnt totally what i wanted. im looking for something that tells me whats merged into my system...not a log of whats been attempted to be merged but a log of what is currently installed. something along of the lines of whats in /var/log/packages in slackware.

The world file is at /var/cache/edb/world. That only shows you things that you have explicitly emerged though. Try qpkg -I. It's part of gentoolkit.

Please have a look in /var/db/pkg.
