FYI I have a small herd of computers here and find it cumbersome to ssh to each and fire up ccp4i just to update the systems. ccp4i takes a while to draw all those boxes (particularly over ssh) and leaves files behind in my disk areas on computers that I'm not likely to, personally, run crystallographic computations. I much prefer to simply run ccp4um from the command line.
In fact, I would rather put it in cron and forget about it -- and I expect that is what --check-silent is for. The usage statement, however, doesn't explicitly say that this installs the new updates it finds. I'll have to experiment a bit.

Sorry that this was unclear. We assume that updater is used primarily from ccp4i, where nothing changed (and why it should be used from command line at all ?:)). The name was changed because it is reserved in Windows, which caused lots of troubles. Now it will stay as is.

There was only one mention of "ccp4um" that I could find in all update descriptions that I found (6.3.0-020). I only figured out what information was trying to be communicated because of your message (see attachment).

Is the reason that CCP4 has reached its final update? James
