I cannot redirect stderr via 'command 2> file' on my Mac, so the easy solution was out. I did find that the following command works:
(make > /dev/null) >& make.txt The reason for this can be found at: http://www.faqs.org/faqs/unix-faq/faq/part2/section-9.html I don't know if this will work on bash or other shells, but it might be worth a try.
