I disagree; those logs can be useful. We just don't need to see them on the console. Why not redirect the compile-output from each .ly to the appropriate .log file? I mean, we *already* have a .log for each .ly file... what's in the .log file at the moment? Why not put the --verbose output in there? etc. GUB does a really nice job of managing ouput information -- it (generally) doesn't overwhelm you with spam on the console, but whenever you want to see what the detailed output was at some step, it's either in the log/ dir (for general GUB stuff) or the relevant target/architecture/log/ dir. I'd like to see a similar thing here. Don't remove output; just save it to files.
