My first thought was something analogous to this:

    fink -y update-all

OTOH, it's not pretty, but you could do this:
    /usr/bin/yes ''|fink update-all

as long as you're sure that the defaults are all okay.

HTH,

Thanks Dan! Didn't know about yes. What would happen with

/usr/bin/yes 5|fink update-all

If the options only run 1-4? Would I have to be there to escape the process?

Also, it turned out that I was only installing 234 packages not downloading that many (since they were bundled).
