I know that hooks don't return STDOUT to the user, but does Subversion's hooks eat STDOUT, or can I pass it on to the next program. That's what I want to know. What you recommend would send STDOUT to the user by sending STDOUT to STDERR and purposefully failing the script. That's not what I want. What I want to do is have a script that builds a list of notification and then passes that along to another program to actually do the notifications. This way, I can allow the user to choose the method of sending notifications. However, I'm taking a slightly different task by simply having multiple notification subroutines in my script and allowing the user to select the one they want. -- David Weintraub qazw...@gmail.com
