I have spent over two hours looking for an answer to this on the web.
Either no one has ever asked it before or it is so blatantly obvious
that I'm going to be embarassed when I find out how it's done.

Satisfied with my abilities of installing and navigating LINUX at the 'P
plate' level, I now want to start doing the things I used to do before
on 'another operating system'. One of these tasks is some simple
programming in 'C'.

I used to use a rather old Borland C compiler. When compiling under DOS,
I could redirect the error and warning messages to a file. From the
file, I could use a variant of vi (called ELVIS) to read the error file
and bring up the offending .c file(s) at the location of the error.

I'm now using gcc and vim and want to do the same thing. I've worked out
that vim can read in the error messages using the -q option (quickfix)
but how (the hell) do I send the gcc error and warning messages to a
file?!

man gcc
man make
howtos
man vim
and everything else I could think of has been searched.

I will be eternally grateful for a reply.

Gregg
