I'll bet I wasn't the only one who went running to 'man emerge' and 'emerge --help'. :) damn, I coulda sworn at one time there was a --nocolor option. Am I the only one who remembers this? Don't have time to look into this, but here's a good starting point: [EMAIL PROTECTED] # grep -ni color `which emerge` 76:if (not sys.stdout.isatty()) or (portage.settings["NOCOLOR"] in ["yes","true"]): 77: nocolor() 559: emergehelp.help(myaction,myopts,havecolor) hth, Cooper. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
