Does anyone know how to scroll up and down in a MSDOS command prompt window? If I print a list or my program has a lot of bugs in it and runs through the whole screen, what can I do to see the all the errors that are not in the immediate window?

If you are using MS-DOS (and Windows Console and Unix),
the easiest way of redirecting your all printf and fprintf is to
add this in the beginning of your program:
freopen("wherestdoutgoes.txt", stdout);freopen("wherestderrgoes.txt", =
stderr);
This way, you can keep a record of all the text generated by your =
program
using printf(...) and fprintf(stderr, ...) including system errors.
You may chose to only redirect stderr only since stdout is for
normal screen output.

I can simply redirect output to file and then view this file wherever you want: Far, Notepad, etc. To redirect file add "> filename" (without quotes) at the end of command line, e.g..: sc test.cpp > err.log The same can be done for your own program: test.exe > exe.log Nic Tiger.

Under Linux, you can do:
make 2> err.log
for redirecting stderr to a file. ('1' for stdout). Too bad this does not
work in dos.

AFAIK, it does work with CMD (WinNT/2k/XP) command shell. If not, one could use an alternative shell, like zsh from UnxUtils (http://unxutils.sourceforge.net). HTH, Laurentiu

In article <b1nl8t$sre$1 digitaldaemon.com>, KarL (someone somewhere.org) says...Yes, but not for stderr
The cmd.exe shell redirects stderr when fed tokens as shown in the following session: C:\Work>dir NotAFilename 2>yap Volume in drive C has no label. Volume Serial Number is 5C76-EEA2 Directory of C:\Work C:\Work>type yap File Not Found C:\Work>dir NotAFilename >yap 2>&1 C:\Work>type yap Volume in drive C has no label. Volume Serial Number is 5C76-EEA2 Directory of C:\Work File Not Found C:\Work> If you are using command.com, then there is no hope of doing anything sensible with it. -- -Larry Brasfield (address munged, s/sn/h/ to reply)

Doesn't all DOS power-users use 4DOS? Is so it's easy: "command >&> file". -- Gisle V. Not what you think it is; http://www.nice-tits.org

Not only on DOS. I use 4NT on NT4 and have 3 console windows open. It's still a very good tool. - Heinz

I almost put in a plug for JP Software's CLI shells, but decided to stick to the subject. I find it easier on my brain to stick with the redirection syntax used by cmd.exe, (also accepted by 4NT), since from time to time I have to use some crippled system that lacks a decent shell. -- -Larry Brasfield (address munged, s/sn/h/ to reply)
