You can usually avoid that with make -DBATCH=yes. With portupgrade it would be portupgrade -m -DBATCH=yes. Usually, that will, if there are options, choose the defaults, which are reasonable. You can put BATCH=yes in /etc/make.conf (see /etc/defaults/make.conf) but of course, what happens then is that you install something where you ~really~ didn't want the defaults. :) - -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 Xander: And this...is called a snack food.
