That's because you weren't in the path of ascii.exe, not because
stderr was being redirected. Stderr should always be redirected when

Did you cd to the program's location when you exited RHIDE?
Before starting RHIDE, you should always cd to the path of where your
compiled executables will be unless you have set up a project. This will
fix the problem.
