in reply to Changing the name of STDOUT...

maybe it's just me, but, rather than go for the complexity for the sake of testing, I always just do something stupid like use regular print's until i get the results I want and add the MAILPIPE stuff later. Why build a jet when all you need is a car?

    Normally, I would as well. Except that when I first started the project, I knew that there would be a LOT of them. I figured that it would be easier to write them all in from the start, and then just change one line, rather than many. thor
      yeah, I guess *MAILPIPE = *STDOUT is easy enough to do. I just get off on global replaces in vi, I guess =)
