I am using TinyCore without a GUI of any sort and occasionally run into a problem where tce-load -wi somepackage fails silently. I understand that it is meant as a behind the scenes tool but a silent failure leave me scratching my head and usually digging into the code to figure out why it failed. Further, if tce-load is failing, then tce-ab is no more informative.
My request is the addition of a -v (verbose) switch that turns on at least a statement of why the script failed.
In my most recent case it was because I had the wrong UUID in my startup string for the tce command. So, tce-load was failing because it could not find the tce directory. But I had to take 10 or fifteen minutes out of my day to figure that out!

It'd be okay to echo an error in that case. Why not send a patch?

I'll work on that maybe next week. Right now I have two pressing deadlines.
