Description Tim Redman 2005-04-08 04:52:16 UTC
As a possible modification to Portage, it would be nice if it updated the xterm window title when prompts appear.

I have seven machines that I run the following script on:

#!/bin/sh
emerge -avuDt --newuse world
emerge -av depclean
revdep-rebuild -pv

Typically, when the script starts, I shade the windows (I'm currently running KDE) and let the process run while I do other things.  By nature of the -a command line option, emerge will periodically prompt me to continue.  What I think would be useful is for the xterm window title to change to include something along the lines of "User Intervention Required" any time one of those prompts come up.

Reproducible: Always
