Well, if you want to run command called "NIL" and redirect the output to file "newmouse", that works just fine.

But, if you want to run command called newmouse and redirect all output to NIL: you should use something like:
Code: [Select]
run >nil: newmouse >nil:

@Thomas

AmigaOS 3.9 BB2 shell also implements the following:

*> foo  redirect stderr output to file "foo"
*>> foo append stderr output to file "foo"
*><     send stderr output to stdout (to the same file)

These do NOT work with older shells however.
