Are you looking at the Terminal output? If so that is not what I |
36 |
posted. |
37 |
|
38 |
I did mention that yes `--color n' kills the color in terminal output. |
39 |
|

Read the whole paragraph you quote 1 sentence from above. |
41 |
|
42 |
This is the end of that para: |
43 |
|
44 |
". . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . I don't expect |
45 |
anyone would have noticed the comment... but it does seem a bit off |
46 |
that I see no differernce here. That is, no difference in the actual |
47 |
log emerge creates. I do see the difference in the terminal output." |
48 |
|
49 |
But as I mentioned what I posted was not the terminal output but the |
50 |
actual log that emerge creates for you.. and points you to when a |
51 |
failure occurs. |
52 |
|
53 |
I just checked it again and I know that is what happens. That is, |
54 |
setting `--color n' kills the color ouput at the terminal however the |
55 |
`build.log' still contains all the color sequences. |
56 |
|
57 |
I'm already viewed dimly for posting so much junk so rather than post |
58 |
samples of both ... I'll leave it for you to try yourself. |
