This would be an option that is off by default, but could be turned on if you wanted to be building several things in the background (another console perhaps) and you wanted to be notified when it was done to make more efficient use of your time. I doubt it would be more than a ~ few lines of code added. Something like: if(BEEP_ON_FINISH) printf((char)7); ??? Anyway . . . back to rebuilding everything (new CFLAGS :-p ) - -- Robert Thomas Georgia Institute of Technology Email: gtg663h@mail.gatech.edu -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQE9+L7YkRe6eFyQaRcRAuw6AJ9XGOxTSOdbW4IU//5BxPZgMPtepQCeL19a y/adU34YCAnXAknbm0shHZY= =ntVJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
