Debug output from makeobj

[jamespetts]

The latest Standard nightlies (which Bernd is working on incorporating into Experimental) adds some very useful debug output to Makeobj. However, when I use the Python script to build Pak128.Britain, the messages disappear off the screen very quickly. Does anyone know a means of saving the debug output from Makeobj when using the Python script (makeALL.mos)?

Edit: I have found the answer, I think: one needs to run makeALL.mos from the command line and use a redirect, e.g.: makeALL.mos > makeobj-output.txt

Edit 2: Alas, this does not work: all that I get is:

Code Select Expand

You have to redirect also stderr
$2>error.txt

(The symbol and number may depend on your shell. stderr > error.txt may also work)

I would recommend verbose instead of debug, it will not report so much image information.
