I think it was Rod P. a year or so ago that mentioned the following
tiny TSR in one of his posts. So thanks, Rod!   ;-)

Example:   "ls *.xyz > blah.txt"

Normally, it will make a 0-byte file that still errors out on the
screen. But with the TSR loaded, you get to save all of it to file.
(Obviously useless here, but you get the idea.)
