I do some work on remote machines and sometimes I have a need to execute additional commands after for example a portmaster -a command.

Normally I use the "&&" to separate commands but this does not work when portmaster displays pkg-messages.

I cannot see in the portmaster manpage that there's a possibility to make the choice on displaying pkg-messages.

Maybe a suggestion to further enhance portmaster in the future.

To work around this I was thinking of maybe making a script that ran

portmaster -a then a command to "press space" until one is sure that all messages has been displayed.

On this I could need some help. My scripting skills are not that good.

Thanks

/Leslie
