-quiet switch for ]link.import #509

Closed dyavc closed 1 year ago

dyavc commented 1 year ago

A Dyalog customer from Finland writes: It would be nice to have a “-quiet” option for ]link.import and ⎕SE.Link.Import (and actually all other commands where it makes sense), that would suppress output by the command. This is a standard option in many unix commands. I have some code which imports library code via ⎕SE.Link.Import when the workspace is started and these outputs just take up space on the screen unnecessarily.

The user commands can be made quiet by inserting ← between ] and the command name, e.g. ]←import

The API functions can be made quiet by prepending {} e.g. {}⎕SE.Link.Import
