   Then a quick and dirty script would probably do what you need (edit as   
   needed, of course):   
      
   CAT=x11-themes   
   find /usr/portage/$CAT -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 -type d -printf "$CAT/%f\n"   
      
   This generates a list of all the packages in the given category. Append   
   ~ARCH at the end and redirect to >> /etc/portage/package.use, or just   
   redirect the list to >> /etc/portage/package.unmask, etc....   
      
   It may be possible to get a similar list using portageq or some other native   
   Gentoo utility (I haven't checked).   
      
   --   
   All the commands are tested with bash and GNU tools, so they may use   
   nonstandard features. I try to mention when something is nonstandard (if   
   I'm aware of that), but I may miss something. Corrections are welcome.
