`zcash-cli getmininginfo` doesn’t seem to reveal anything

Can anyone answer this? There must be some way to get metrics without staring at the screen 24/7 …

~/zcash/./src/zcash-cli stop

then type

~/zcash/./src/zcashd

I don’t get it - this doesn’t display sols/s?

Oh I see. Running with the `-daemon` suppresses the status updates about mining, they aren’t in the debug log or anything. Without the `-daemon` flag, it shows the splash screen and mining info. Thanks!
