While I've seen this suggestion before (and it's a very unix-y way to do it), the "canonical" method (from build(7)) is to run make -DBATCH_DELETE_OLD_FILES delete-old What I'd like to see (although I realize this isn't the correct forum..) is a make target that produces a list of files that _would_ be deleted, which the admin could then review and approve all or remove individual files to be preserved. But until I turn this into a useful PR or a nice request on a different list just consider it a rant. :) JN _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
