There is two 'global' bb_tools options that may be used to control verbosity: Usage: bb_tools [bb_tools_opts] <bb_tools_cmd> [cmd_opts] bb_tools_opts: -s silent mode (may be used for silent scripting) -v verbose mode -n no newline read mode So that I would say that the "no option" case may be more verbose for ERROR case, since if someone wants to use a "silent" bb_tools then s/he should use '-s'. Thus my opinion is: -s mode should really remain silent :=) default (no option) mode may be automatically verbose for error case -v mode should print as many information as one wants (was used for debugging address issue) Sidenote: the -n no newline mode is handy for coding some A=`bb_tools -n bb_read bb_simu bb_simu_1_Titi` and avoiding the trailing '\n'. I would say that "ERROR" should be the outputed value in case or ERROR in read 'no newline' mode. _______________________________________________ Tsp-devel mailing list Tsp-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/tsp-devel
