Is there a way in Gofer to perform output redirection?  For example, in a 
version of Miranda I used to work with, one could type:

     exp &> file

which would send the value of expression to a file (background process); 
both standard output and the standard error output of the process would be 
redirected to 'file'.  If two (blank separated) pathnames are given after 
the '&>', standard output was redirected to the first file and standard 
error to the second.  Thus:

     exp &> outfil errfil

I am new to Gofer, and have not yet found a description of this capability 
mentioned in the documentation.  This feature was very handy in Miranda for 
quickly constructing text files.  ('&>>' would append the output to the 
file.)  I am using the Gofer interpreter Version 2.30a on a UNIX System V 
Release 4.0 machine.

Thank you.
