Yep. It's
make 2> log.txt
The "2" signifies to bash that you want stderr output. I think
a "1" is assumed if you just use the ">" sign, where "1" means
stdout output. If you define another file unit number and open
a file to associate with that unit number, you can use that number
in that place, as well. I don't think 3 and up are pre-defined.
Of course, I don't recommend you begin learning Bash programming.
I suggest you run inside an emacs "shell". Both Marcus and I
posted .emacs files that would allow you to do this. And I
think there's a couple of flags on the swarm.exe that will give you an
environment setup and an elisp file. Check the mailing list archives.
