report/display rsync output in separate buffer?

[emacsomancer]

It would be nice to have a buffer which collects rsync output, particularly for lengthier rsync operations (but also to check errors etc.)

You can actually get to the buffer by doing a M-x list-processes and clicking/selecting the process buffer. I could probably add a key shortcut to dired for it but what to do when you have 2 or more rsyncs running?

How about not kill the process buffer and let it auto pop out when the the process finished with an error?

[QiangF]

Looks like the error variable err in dired-rsync--filter is not defined.

@QiangF err can be nil. What error are you seeing?

[QiangF]

I see. I am just afraid of possible unnoticed failures.

There seems no visual feedback when running dired-rsync. Am I wrong?
