According to Andreas Bauer:

Diese Nachricht antwortet auf einen Text, den j.j.vanderheijden@student.utwente.nl am Freitag, den 11.10.96, durch die Datennetze geschossen hat:

JJvdH> This was a remark by Peter, but he was probably confusing unix and= dos. JJvdH> Not sure you can redirect stderr in DOS. Yes, i read something it's impossible in DOS. :-(

No, that was no confusion; I really meant DOS. It actually works with a DOS box in OS/2.

However, it seems *not* to work with MS-DOS nor with Novell DOS. :-(

In the djgpp NewsGroup somebody said there would be a recepy how to redirect stderr with DOS in the djgpp FAQ.

If it is possible to disable those ugly underscore-warnings... ?!

Yes, with (*$W-*) ... (*$W+*) you can switch off/on warnings for a certain section of the code.

(However I don't like __underscored_identifiers__ either. ;-)

No, i'll try to write my own system-unit and I'll try to access the LFB of an VESA card.

Did you try Berend's System unit?

(And don't forget to send us your useful units so we can publish it. ;-)

Bye,

Peter
