Ed Jaffe's post was along the lines of what I was thinking as the right approach:
-- define a console -- issue the command -- capture messages sent to that console -- do what you want -- undefine the console Some started tasks might send their output to the console that started them rather than to the console that issued the modify command. The latter is probably what they should do. There's also the possibility of using a WTO exit to capture "everything", figure out which are of interest and do what you want (as long as it is allowed within the exit).
