I've not had to do multiple outputs in Windows yet so I have not
given it much tought. How does one send output to more then one
DOS window? In the absence of a better suggestion, I suppose I
can output to artificial files and use cygwin's tail -f command
in each DOS window to scroll the appropriate file as it is
being written.
