newbie question: redirect stdout? [message #17198]

Greetings everyone,

I've been using IDL for 5 days, so please excuse me if this appears
trivial to you folks. (I didn't find it in the FAQ though.)

Here is the problem:

I'm running IDL 5.2.1 on a PowerMac

I am running a batch program which takes about 5 hours per iteration (so I
don't want to sit there watching) and generates a lot of output (mostly
diagnostic messages) to stdout.

I would like to log this output to a file, preferably by redirecting
stdout (and stderr) to a file. I am stumped as to how to accomplish this
within IDL short of changing all my print statements to explicitly write
to a file (which wouldn't help with IDL generated messages).

Any thoughts?

Cheers,

Andreas V. Kadavanich
