 |

hi everyone!
when im doing a emerge -u world im ususally not sitting next to my computer waiting for 2 hours till everything has emerged and reading all the notices that show up while emerging. but somethimes those messages that show up during an emerge can be important (eg when i did the gtk+-2.4 upgrade there was a message saying one should recompile gtk-themes for the old themes to work again). is there a way of reading those messages all together when the emerge is finished. are they saved to a file or maybe can they be piped to a file?

n havent tried it yet, since when piping you dont see the screen output and i wanna see that  (dont ask for a reason, i have none). i wonder if those messages maybe are written on the rror console, so they can be caught by using 2> to redirect that stream to a file. dones anyone know anything about that? dev ... how about you? |

| you could pipe it to more. then you should be able to see the screen output during and after emerge |

| You could also pipe to tee (which writes it's stdin to stdout and a list of files you name). |

sounds good so far, ill do it like that next time.
i just wonder if there is any non-hack way to do this, some way to log the * marked lines of the emerge process. |

Instead of piping or teeing to a file, you can also do this:
script
emerge world ; exit
Then you will have a file called typescript that will contain everything that shows up on the screen. I guess this is similar to tee.
