Andi and others: With other command line tools, there is usually a "warnings only" switch, in which the output is suppressed when things are normal, but if a problem occurs, then it will respond with the problem.
For example, ffmpeg has the -loglevel switch, which can be set to 'quiet' 'warning' 'verbose' etc. based on the amount of output you want returned, if any. Yes, I can send the responses to null, but then I would never know if there was a problem. I could look at the responses, and add a conditional for a warning alert, but I do not know all of the possible warning responses from s3cmd. Like I said, most command line tools already have a warnings only switch for this reason. I guess I am going to give on on using s3cmd for now, since there does not seem to be a warnings only option, which is unfortunate, as I like many of the things it does over some of the other s3 tools. Perhaps the author will add this option in the future. John On 12/14/2012 4:57 PM, Andi Everitt wrote: > Hi John, > > I'm not sure exactly what you're asking.
