This time with a subject... :-)

Target System: PowerPC, AdaMULTI v1.8.9b, VxWorks 5.4

How do I redirect the standard output? I'd like to redirect it to device
"/null"

Attempts:
 Open (DevNull, Append_File, "/null");
 Open (DevNull, "/null", "/null");

just cause Status_Error, i.e. the device is already "open". So how can
I then "Set_Output (DevNull);" without having the device object in
File_Type form?..
