Thanks for Devuan link - it does indeed appear to be vapourware so far.
I would have thought that the gnome development community was exactly the
place to ask why I cannot get stderr output from gnome-shell when called by
gnome-session.
Is it possible to get js log and js error messages from gnome-shell by using
something like:
int
main (int argc, char **argv)
{
freopen("/tmp/mystderr.txt", "w", stderr);
and then:
log('mymessage ');
Or, if this is not the way, how do I get them?
Regards
John
