Right, I believe that currently the "-" and "+" lines are always on or 
off together (unless there is an "@" prefix in the command). Should be 
relatively easy to change - if you feel that it's important, please file 
an RFE in Bugzilla. You can disable the command output using 
"--output-only-errors".

Yes - you can use the fact that the options are scoped and add a local 
override.

% cat OMakefile
.PHONY: foo bar
.DEFAULT: foo

section
     OMakeFlags(-s)
     bar:
         @echo This is bar

foo: bar
     @echo This is foo

% omake
*** omake: reading OMakefiles
*** omake: finished reading OMakefiles (0.0 sec)
This is bar
- build . <foo>
This is foo
*** omake: done (0.0 sec, 0/0 scans, 2/2 rules, 0/33 digests)
