+<userinput>sed "s/XConsole/#XConsole/" Makefile | make -f -:</userinput> 
+This will comment out the XConsole variable in the Makefile and pipe the
+output of sed (the modified Makefile) directly to the make program. This
+is an alternate and more efficient way to direct the output to a file
+and tell make to use that alternate file. The XConsole build is disabled
+because it can't be build yet because we don't have X installed yet.
