Description Alex Tarkovsky 2006-07-17 00:10:00 UTC

Patch provides a new EOutput class for the Portage output.py module. EOutput is a convenient Python port of the familiar ebegin(), eend(), eerror(), einfo(), einfon(), ewarn(), and ewend() functions from /sbin/functions.sh.

The inline documentation is written according to Chris White's new Portage API documentation proposal currently being discussed on gentoo-portage-dev [1]. As an aside, you can generate nice HTML formatted API docs for EOutput from the source with the following command if you have epydoc installed:

epydoc --name Portage -o ~/epydoc output.py

use ebegin and eend for checksums

This patch uses ebegin and eend to enhance the visual output when portage performs checksums.  The ;-) is sort of redundant, but I kept it because I know that some people are extremely attached to it. :)
