Errors should just go to standard error, which is by default your screen. If you want to build a port and redirect the output to a file (recommended if you are having problems building a port and need a good log) you can try this: make >& /tmp/makeport.log (C Shell) or make > /tmp/makeport.log 2>&1 & (Bourne Shell) Then you can do a `tail -F /tmp/makeport.log` to check on its progress. -- Christopher Farley www.northernbrewer.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
