This will *NOT* capture error error messages, because you're only redirecting stdout, not stderr. One way to get both is to redirect stderr to stdout before redirecting stdout, e.g. emerge --update --deep --newuse @world >>emerge.log 2>&1 And I absolutely *HATE* commands that send "--help" output to stderr rather than stdout. That's why I researched this stuff. -- Walter Dnes <waltd...@waltdnes.org> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
