I don know where to find a suitable command line for this and as I don
know anything about awk I turn to the community:
I need a command line for emerge world that recompiles world
WITHOUT packages that take too long as gcc, libreoffice, glibc, firefox
and more of those.

Would that even be possible at all?

It's a good habit to get into for rebuilds to include the --oneshot option. Although it doesn't technically matter for the world set, in other circumstances, you will inadvertently add things to the world set without --oneshot.
