Messages are output with #'info.

Is this a xindy or a CLISP function?

We want standard Unix behaviour:
-- error messages on stderr (turn off with redirection)
-- progress report on stdout (turn off with -q)
-- verbose progress report on stdout (turn on with -v)
-- debugging messages on stdout (turn on with -d)

    Info is a xindy function, in base.lsp. It outputs to
    *ERROR-OUTPUT*, but should output to *STANDARD-OUTPUT*.

    In fact, most current info output should only be output in
    verbose mode.

    Strange discoveries. Somehow xindy 2.2-rc2, distributed as the LaTeX Companion Release, doesn't have the log-to-stderr behaviour, but logs to stdout. (Thanks to Andreas Matthias for pointing that out.)

    texindy script version: 1.03
