the magic of unix; you can work around this with some sed. # pkg_delete -X 2>&1 | tee you_should # sed -n 's/^You should also run //p' you_should >also_run # cat also_run #to verify # ksh ./also_run alternately, as non-root $ doas pkg_delete -X 2>&1 | tee you_should $ sed -n 's/^You should also run /doas /p' you_should >also_run $ cat also_run $ ksh ./also_run the above would allow doas to log each command. you could also make this into a script pkg_scrub: #!/bin/ksh raw=$TMPDIR/$$.you_should cooked=$TMPDIR/$$.also_run if [[ "$1" = all ]];then doas pkg_delete -X 2>&1 | tee $raw else doas pkg_delete $* 2>&1 | tee $raw fi sed -n 's/^You should also run /doas /p' $raw >$cooked rm -f $raw if [ ! -s $cooked ];then rm -f $cooked return 0 fi cat $cooked prompt run?"run these commands? [type 'Yes' to confirm] " if [[ "$run" = Yes ]];then ksh $cooked rm -f $cooked else echo "not running commands, saved in $cooked" fi i didn't properly test this, but you would use this like $ pkg_scrub all or $ pkg_scrub pkg1 pkg2 ...
