XWin -help behavior

2002-04-29 Thread Thomas Chadwick

I just noticed today that if I run XWin -help, I don't see anything at the 
command-line.  I have to go look in /tmp/XWin.log to see the results.

Would it make send to print this information to STERR instead of the log 
file?

Aha.  I see now that man XWin and man Xserver are a preferable 
alternative to Xwin -help anyway.

Sam,

Thanks, I forgot that point.

  XWin.exe is linked as a Windows GUI application to stop it requiring
  the creation of a console window so it doesn't have redirectable
  standard I/O.
