Any time I run emerge I get a huge amount of cruft.

root@h3-xp-pro-sp3 Install # emerge --help
[01memerge:[39;49;00m the other white meat (command-line interface to the Portage system)
[01mUsage:[39;49;00m
[36;01memerge[39;49;00m [ [32;01moptions[39;49;00m ] [ [32;01maction[39;49;00m ] [ [36;01mebuild[39;49;00m | [36;01mtbz2[39;49;00m | [36;01mfile[39;49;00m | [36;01m@set[39;49;00m | [36;01matom[39;49;00m ] [ ... ]

... it goes on.

Has anyone experienced this before? If so is there a parameter to remove the cruft?

emerge --color n

or add

NOCOLOR=true

in /etc/make.conf

or

Use a terminal emulator that supports ANSI.

Solution of adding "--color n" is confirmed to work.
