If the shell redirection method isn't suitable (eg, running in a CGI script, or envoked in some other way you can't control), there are other options. `open(STDERR, '>>', $filename) or die "can't open log $filename: $!"` PerlIO::Util or PerlIO::tee to copy, like `STDERR->push_layer(tee => \$filehandle);`	[reply] [d/l] [select]
