Re: [WEB400] Displaying standard-out

["Peter Dow" <maillist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

So what program is intercepting the stdout stream and showing it on my green
screen?  It doesn't appear to show up in the call stack.

And even with my program, all the write's to stdout are done by a procedure,
so I could simulatenously log to a disk file, but I was intrigued that it
actually displayed on the green screen.
