You are forgetting the unix philosophy. It is not configtool vs
ecosconfig, it is configtool vs ecosconfig+emacs+vim+sed+grep+awk+bash.....
Being able to combine these together gives you something very
flexible, powerful, and extensible.

The document for all loaded packages is in the ecos.ecc file. So you
can use more,less,emacs,vim etc to display and probably more
importantly, search it.
