Hi Pierre, Le lundi 22 octobre 2007, Pierre Habouzit a écrit : > + > +say_color () { > + [ "$nocolor" = 0 ] && [ "$1" != '-1' ] && tput setaf "$1" > + shift > + echo "* $*" > + tput op > +} > + > error () { > - echo "* error: $*" > + say_color 9 "* error: $*" This will print something like "* * error: ..." instead of "* error: ..." The following should work: > + say_color 9 "error: $*" By the way, where do the 9 here and the 10 and the -1 below come from ? "man 5 terminfo" says that only values form 0 to 7 are portably defined. Maybe 9 is a bold red and 10 a bold green, or something like that, but it doesn't seem to work on my konsole. Anyway, perhaps having: _red=1 _green=2 and then using "say_color $_red stuff" might be easier to understand and change if needed. Thanks for this good idea, Christian. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
