I agree completely with the first suggestion.&nbsp; Especially for some
of my apps that run as daemons and&nbsp; are cut off from tty completely
- there is no way to get the valgrind prompt and&nbsp; reply to it (all
valgrind output is going to a log file).

<p>What do you think of a --gen-suppressions={yes|no|ask} option.&nbsp;
"yes"
<br>would generate suppressions without a prompt for every flagged issue,
<br>and "ask" would do what yes does now.&nbsp; I just want it to dump
<br>everything in a file and when it prompts me I have to sit there and
<br>bang "y" on the keyboard.
<p>A less desirable second choice would be to add another option to the
<br>prompt.&nbsp; Currently we have "no this time", "yes this time", and
<br>"no this time and for all future occurances".&nbsp; A "yes this time
and for
<br>all future occurances" would do it, but you'd still need to
<br>answer that first prompt, even if you'd routed the valgrind output
to a
<br>file.
