Right, that's indeed what is (very sadly) happening. It turned out that the
stderr output is the part that I really need in this case.
The only working solution I found was to do
run(pipeline(ignorestatus(cmd), stdout=DevNull, stderr="errs.txt"))
t = readall("errs.txt");
but it's annoying having to write a disk file and read its contents.
Had some hope on this one, but no way too
julia> readall(run(pipeline(ignorestatus(cm), STDOUT, STDOUT)))
Image Difference (RootMeanSquaredError):
Normalized Absolute
============ ==========

Green: 0.3611391197 23667.3
Blue: 0.2638682470 17292.6
Total: 0.3354900017 21986.3
C:/programs/GraphicsMagick/gm.exe compare: image difference exceeds limit
(0.33549 > 0.001).
ERROR: MethodError: `readall` has no method matching readall(::Void)
and this one completely hangs the REPL giviing me no choice but killing the
shell window
rd,wr=redirect_stderr();
run(pipeline(ignorestatus(cmd), stdout=DevNull, stderr=rd))
now if try to read from 'rd'
readall(rd) # ---> IceAge
