[gentoo-dev] emerge feature for 1.0 release?

[Zach Forrest]

I think it would be nice to add something like the code below to the 
emerge command before the 1.0 release of Gentoo. Then rather than Python 
printing a traceback on a keyboard interrupt (i.e. ^C), a nice "abort" 
message would be printed. This would be more refined from a user 
perspective (in my opinion). Of course, if the '--debug' option were to 
be passed to emerge, the trace back could/should be printed.

if __name__ == '__main__':
     # Replace this with however emerge needs to be called.
     app = EmergeApp()
     try:
         app.main()
     except KeyboardInterrupt, e:
         print 'emerge: aborted'
