build-progress.sh (1)

build-progress.sh

build-progress.sh can be used to watch the progress of a large KDE build in the title bar of your konsole or xterm.

The KDE build must be running elsewhere as a separate process, and it must be done using kde-build(1).

When you run build-progress.sh, it will sit in a permanent loop while kde-build runs. The title bar of the konsole/xterm in which you ran build-progress.sh will be continually updated with the directory in which the KDE build is currently working.

You must run build-progress.sh from the top-level directory of the KDE build tree. This directory must contain a file named kde-buildrc (which is also used by kde-build). This kde-buildrc must contain valid settings for KDELOGDIR and KDESRCDIR, or else build-progress.sh will fail to work.

This utility is part of the KDE Software Development Kit.

kde-buildrc

This file must be contained in the current directory, which must be the root of the KDE build tree. See kde-build(1) for further information.
