I don't think we should do this unless users demand it, which means we should wait for the next release and some time beyond before making the decision. FWIW, I'm running 8-way parallel Make jobs for many months now, and never had any trouble interpreting their output, neither when they succeed, nor when they don't. The synchronized output operation annoys me slightly in that there are distinct time intervals when Make says nothing at all, and then the output appears in large chunks that get dumped en-masse to the screen. IOW, the user experience is different and takes time to get used to. _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
