Suggestions for sce-import

(1/1)

sm8ps:
The sce-import command asks several times for user affirmation before it finally sets to work.

* Right after selecting the appropriate package, one has to confirm that choice. (standard answer is negative).
* One is asked if one wants to read through the list of packages (standard answer is negative).
* Finally, one is asked if one really wants to proceed creating the extension (standard answer is negative).This feels rather clumsy. I suggest to ...

* remove the confirmation of the choice of package.
* keep the option of reading the packages list
* keep the final affirmation but change its standard answer to positiveI do not know if these suggestions might have unforeseen implications but I cannot see any.

Jason W:
You may have seen the -n option which eliminates any confirmation, only selecting dependency SCEs or if there is not enough space when the size option is used.

I will look at this, but when answering confirmation, I check for a "y" and anything else is negative.  To do the opposite, I would have to say that everything else besides "n" is a positive.   Really not a big issue, as the answer is always yes and ctrl-c could stop the process at any time.  Yeah, the enter button would be convenient as to not have to find the y button a few times during import. 

Me, I use the -n option since I like as little interaction as possible.
