Several months ago I adapted CPAN module IO::Capture for use inside Parrot by creating Parrot::IO::Capture::Mini. Its main use is to capture verbose output during testing so as to reduce terminal clutter and to see if correct output is generated. I've run into a number of difficulties with P::IO::C::Mini and tonight began to explore the possibility of replacing it with CPAN module IO::CaptureOutput, maintainership of which has recently been assumed by David Golden. I have created a 'capture' branch in the Parrot repository to make and test this replacement in each of 80+ test files that currently use Mini. If CaptureOutput proves superior to Mini, I will advocate that it be used in trunk. If anyone wishes to help me out with this search-and-replace work, please check out the 'capture' branch and let me know. Thank you very much. kid51
