Compile status

Hi When I first tried to compile the PEAR manual, I thought that openjade hung in an infinite loop as it worked for over 5 minutes without giving a notice that something has been done. Further it is annoying not to know how far the compile process has gone; so here is a small shell script which displays a (rough) estimation of the current status: ======================== #!/bin/sh numCurrent=ls html | wc -l numAll=cat chapters.ent | wc -l percent=$[100*$numCurrent/$numAll] echo "$numCurrent/$numAll - $percent%" ======================== It takes the number of defined entities in chapters.ent as 100% and lists the number of compiled files in the html/ directory as current number. Now this works only if the files in html/ are deleted before calling "make", but it may help some people :) Regards/MfG, Christian Weiske -- XMMS is playing now: Juli - Regen Und Meer
