Myself, I used to mail myself the output of esync, and now I mail myself
the output of eix-sync, so I don't have so much experience with using
emerge --sync in a cron job, but this looks like it might be what you're
looking for:


--nospinner
              Disables the spinner for the session.  The spinner is
active when the terminal device is determined to be a TTY.   This  flag
 disables it regardless.

You might also be interested in:

    --quiet (-q)
              Results may vary, but the general outcome is a reduced or
condensed output from portage's displays.

Hope this helps,
Holly
