Re: [sdcc-devel] stdout instead stderr

[Maarten B. <sou...@ds...>]

Even back in the days of command.com stderr was understood. But it 
is sometimes a bit harder to redirect it. A few years back there was an 
excellent article in DrDobbs about how to handle that properly.

Anyway, if this is the only response, I assume my fix is 
noncontroversial and I will commit it.
