Nice list, although I'd rather add extra output only if command is used with -v/--verbose (or -V/--verbose) option; if not, then add -q/--quiet (or -s/--silent) option to be used in scripts. I'm partial to --verbose solution, as advanced users are not interested in any output; they know the commands, and want them to be fast. C.f GNU tar: it outputs somethi= ng only with -v/--verbose option. --=20 Jakub Narebski Warsaw, Poland ShadeHawk on #git
