SYMPTOMS
When you use the ROUTE command, attempts to re-direct stdout fail. In
addition, "ROUTE /? | MORE" fails to pause after each page.
CAUSE
The ROUTE command is writing output to stderr instead of stdout.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.5.
We are researching this problem and will post new information here in
the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
WORKAROUND
Because stderr is defined as "2", the following command will work
correctly:
This instructs the route command to redirect stderr to the file MYFILE.TXT.
The file may then be viewed with Notepad or any other text editor.
