I know (from the Rute user's tutorial :-). But I don't want to redirect stderr. (Besides that, is the above output stderr? It's only telling me what it does, and it succeeds in doing that, so that shouldn't be stderr!?) `make install' prints a lot on the screen, it makes my head swim. It prints all these `for foo in ...' lines, then the command lines it uses to copy the files -- it looks as if I turned debug-mode on. That's just how it feels, IMO. I guess there are reasons for not using /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 --verbose ... and just show the output of that on the screen (probably `--verbose' isn't available everywhere?). Anyway, that's why I wanted to redirect stdout _only_ in order to see if there is any stderr. And as the above output doesn't look like stderr to me, I thought there is some kind of `echo off' missing in the makefile. -- Christian Schlauer _______________________________________________ bug-auctex mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-auctex
