Comment(by pgf):

 Replying to [comment:2 wmb at firmworks.com]:
 > Do you know about the "to-file <filename> <rest of command line>"
 facility?  It temporarily redirects console output to <filename> for the
 rest of the command line, like ">" in Unix.

 i did not know about that.  thanks.  will be useful.

 > I think the solution in the mfg flow case - and perhaps in general - may
 be to log all console output to memory and provide a mechanism for dumping
 the log to a device.

 this sounds like it would be an excellent solution.
