I partially agree with you. Indeed it is easily possible to redirect to '/dev/null' using a redirect, we miss two functionalities here: 1. When you search with yaourt w/o parameters (e.g. 'yaourt package-query') all search results are redirected to '/dev/null', making this useless.
How hard is it to not type the redirect then? Are you wrapping yaourt further, for whatever reason?
2. The coloring that yaourt uses while outputting is lost.
Does yaourt come with a --color=always flag? Because then you can make it add the color in a pipe, eg. |less -R. cheers! mar77i
