[gentoo-user] Globally disabling colour

[Dr Rainer Woitok]

Greetings,

having freshly erm ... converted from Ubuntu to Gentoo and thus being an
absolute Gentoo newbie  I'm desparately looking  for a way to get rid of
all the colour in the output  produced by "emerge"  but also by "qlist",
"eix", "e-file" and so on.

Is there a way to globally configure this for all these commands?   I've
already added  'NOCLOR="false"'  to my "make.conf" file but this doesn't
seem to do the trick.  Do I really have to remember for each call to one
of these commands to disable colour individually and in addition have to
remember what's the correct "nocolor" option for the command at hand?

Any pointers welcome ... :-)

Sincerely,
  Rainer
