I'm doing a programming assignment (concurrent programming :S) with one of these old DOS compilers that just reads the program from a text file and outputs straight into the command prompt window. How would I get the output to go into a text file instead? Cheers!

What exactly is this old DOS compiler?

I assume this is a C compiler?

Wait, you just want to capture what's written to the DOS prompt? Easy. Just when you run the compile command, use the >> operator to point to a log file.

C:\> cl someSource.c 1>>C:\compile.log 2>>C:\error.log

1>> will log stdout, 2>> will log stderr. Use a single > if you do not want to append to the log file it it exists.

Ah thanks a lot, that's it.

The compiler is "PascalFC", and I think students at my uni are the only ones in the world who use it. It's basically programming concurrently (channels, remote invocation, semaphores etc) using Basic.
