tout_set_redir

tout_set_redir stream filename

This command can be used to enable redirection of any output or error to a file. Output also still appears in the appropriate window. stream should be one of stdout or stderr. filename specifies which file to save output to. Any previously redirected filename for this stream is automatically closed. A blank filename can be used to close the current redirection for this stream without opening a new file. The command returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

This control is connected to the "redirect" menu created by the tout_create_wins command.
