That will teach me to take a nap.  That's why I use genlop too.  I
rarely use any of the q commands.  It seems something is always missing
for one reason or the other.  I'm sure that varies over time tho.

I'm just disappointed that genlop fails if it runs into a package that
has not been compiled before.  It offers a option to go to a website and
estimate the time from that but thing is, no one has my CPU so that
errors out too.  I wish they would put it back like it was and if a
person wants to use the option to check a website, fine, they can do
that.  In the meantime, I get something besides a error message and no
info at all.

Progress is sometimes no progress at all.

Miss the compile output?  Hint:
