Can't suppress MAPM warnings

[vefatica]

I can't suppress MAPM warnings (and I'd like to).

p:\mapm> echo %@eval[acos(2)] 2>NUL
MAPM Warning: 'm_apm_arccos', |Argument| > 1
0

That particular message ("Warning") only comes from one place.

p:\mapm> grep Warning: *.c
MAPMUTL1.C:    fprintf(stderr, "MAPM Warning: %s\n", message);

I suspect a change (to something more redirection-friendly) would allow the user to get rid of them.

WAD - variables & variable functions are evaluated before redirection. (And you really, really wouldn't want me to change that ...)

Yup. I see what you mean. (And no, I wouldn't.)

Have you tried the parentheses thing?

( echo %@eval[acos(2)] ) 2>NUL

No. It works. Thanks. I'll probably forget that before I need it again!

Command grouping is the appropriate way to do this. TCC does the redirection first and then processes everything in the group.

Sorry; I know that "parentheses thing" is not the correct technical locution. I just like giving pat answers.
