in this case, e.g. WriteOutput(Buffer) and/or WriteError(Buffer)?
You can use either, but shouldn't use both.
In shells it is possible to redirect stdout to stderr ("program >stdout_data.txt
2>&1"),
but also the other way around, hence stderr to stdout ("program 2>stderr_data.txt
1>&2").
Is it possible to distinguish the two from each other?
No, ooRexx command redirection is to actual ooRexx objects, there is no notion of redirecting
stdout to stderr (or vice versa).
So these redirection objects are either the same, or not.
Thank you for the clarifications!
