Is there a way to redirect output of a ghci debugger command

Claus had some GHCi macros for doing this sort of thing.  Claus?

Sure, recorded here (sections 4/5, but the rest of the page should
also be better known; if only so that others would add their tips and
tricks as well; hmm, ghc-haskeline isn't there, yet):

http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/GHC/GHCi#Using_.ghci.2C_a_mini-tutorial

Some of the items mentioned in the tutorial email have since been
added to GHCi, but I still use the :grep, :redir, and :ghc_pkg stuff; :redir(Err) only works properly if -fbreak-on-exceptions is not switched on, haven't investigated workarounds yet.

There is also a stub page for the GHCi debugger, nothing on it yet:
