Oh, sure, in csh here's how you'd redirect stderr to someplace other
than where stdout is going:
sh -c 'find . -name foo -print >someFile 2>errorFile'
I.E. if you want this functionality, you'd better use the Bourne
shell, because csh is famous for not offering this functionality.
I don't know about everybody else, but I need this functionality all
of the time, including in interactive shells. Therefore the csh is
useless to me.
