When I open up ppm, the UI shows me several upgradable packages. Unfortunately, I cannot select them all by typing Ctrla or clicking the first element, holding Shift and then select the last element in the list.
Do I really have to walk through all elements and press the + key in order to select them? Refusing to believe that.
You can do it from the command line.
This will upgrade all packages without asking. There’s something about it in the Activestate online doc.
