javac's compiler error messages go to stderr, not stdout. The correct
incantation would be:
javac myprog.java 2> error.txt
Just in case your "C" :-) asks, javac also sets the errorlevel in
Win98 to 0 if no errors occurred, 1 otherwise. So you can do stuff
like this in a batch file:
javac myprog.java 2> error.txt
if errorlevel 1 edit error.txt
Hope this helps.
