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.
