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! ;-) http://johnsantic.com/comp/tsr.html 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.)
