Oh, I see. Well, errors go to standard error. Does anyone know how to redirect
stderr in Windows?
Or else, should the user be able to specify a file for this instead? In some
ways that's an attractive idea, but in other ways I'm worried that people will
set the ERRFILE, forget they've set it, and then not see any error/warnings
messages. I suppose -- I'm thinking as I type here -- setting the ERRFILE
could generate a message to stdout as a side effect.
