OK, thanks for your comments on this, this is much appreciated. The more I think of it, the more it seems that what was bugging me with "quilt edit" was not the fact that it was printing messages, but the fact that it was printing different messages if the file was already in the top patch or not. Reminding the name of the patch being worked on is valuable. I've probably been barking up the wrong tree this time. So I'll rework my patch and post it again once I have something that makes more sense. Speaking of patches, wouldn't it make sense to have "quilt edit" support a -p parameter to pass the patch to work on, just like "quilt add" has? It seems a bit strange that "quilt edit" only allows editing files in the top patch when quilt itself seems to be fine with files in other applied patches being edited (under conditions, of course.) I'm just wondering, maybe there's a reason why this wasn't done?
