Re: Huge Text Files

Redirecting stderr to the output window probably could be done,
but would need to be carefully considered.

* What about those that occur before the output window is created?
* What about critical errors from Gtk / Glib?  Should they also go
  to the output window?  If so, it could leed to looping.
* There's an open feature request to allow more than one output window.
  Which one would get the stderr?


However, one thing we really should do, is to generate a warning if
a procedure iterates less cases than expected.

     We probably should add support for a log file, to capture this
     kind of output.  (Maybe we should write these messages to the
     existing journal, as comments?)
