ISSUES

1. [New comment] sys.stdout.isatty() always returns True
http://ironpython.codeplex.com/workitem/33123
User jdhardy has commented on the issue:

"I don't think, in general, that IronPython can tell them apart, but False is 
probably safer."-----------------

2. [New comment] sys.stdout.isatty() always returns True
http://ironpython.codeplex.com/workitem/33123
User pekkaklarck has commented on the issue:

"It seems you cannot do this directly using .NET 4.0 APIs, but the information 
is available via win32 APIs:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3453220/how-to-detect-if-console-in-stdin-has-been-redirected

.NET 4.5 makes this easier:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.console.isoutputredirected%28v=VS.110%29.aspx

If this problem cannot be easily fixed under these circumstances, I actually 
prefer True over False as the return value. Well behaving tools that enable 
fancy console output when sys.stdout.isatty() is True work better currently. 
Really well behaving tools allow unconditionally turning fancy outputs off and 
that functionality can be used when redirecting."
