Windows Command.com does not support stderr redirection AFAIK, but if you
use 4DOS from JPSoftware you can write:

Lame |& more

or better "Lame |& List /s"

I as well use pgcc (version 2.95.2) here on OS/2 with no noticable
side-effects. Though when I tried compiling with -march=pentiumpro it
generated MP3's with strange noises. -march=pentium produces normal mp3's
though. So I guess it's not perfect :)

Learn your shell; the output is going to stderr, not stdout.  You're only 
redirecting stdout. (If/when telling LAME to send it's output to stdout, you'd 
then collide with the usage outout and never see it).

Mark:  However, GNU guidelines do suggest that the usage output (which would
normally go to stderr) go to stdout if explicitly requested.

9x users can't. NT users can; and the NT console has scrollback anyway.

I'm currently running a triple boot system (Linux, Win98, Win2k). I might be
tempted to switch to Linux as my default boot if so many of my favourite
toys weren't Windows-based. ;)

BTW, the Linux distribution I have (Mandrake 6.x) uses pgcc (a
Pentium-specific branch of gcc) as its default compiler. Gives a noticable
speed improvement for LAME, and I haven't noticed any glitches with it.
Since pgcc was apparently used to build the entire Mandrake distribution, I
guess it's a pretty stable compiler now...

Maybe he can try "lame 2> file.asc & more http://geek.rcc.se/mp3encoder/ )

Can windows users redirect stderr like us poor saps stuck using Free
Software?
