I was just trying a fresh update of jhalfs and it said to reformat the

--rebuild`.  As I see this, the script would delete all directories
except sources, lost+found, and jhalfs/lfs*.

In other words, you ask for a --rebuild switch that will clean an existing build tree created by a previous run of jhalfs on the specified $BUILDDIR directory before to create an run the new Makefile, right?



Hi, I used jhalfs the other day and it worked flawlessly :-). I thought at the time however, it would be useful to have some means of knowing when it is actually doing something... i.e. when it was building the gcc bootstrap (If I recall correctly) there is a long period where you stare at a blank screen... Looking at the disk activity light helps but it isn't quite the same as seeing pages of compiler warning messages scrolling by...

I don't know if this is even possible in a terminal window - maybe with some clever escape sequences or something?


Just the meanderings of a lost sole - please ignore if this is stupid.
