Yes, it's possible, and no, it's not a djgpp feature. If you read the
redir docs carefully, you will notice how this is done. So to redirect
stderr, you just need to close the stderr file handle, then open it to
point at the file you want the stderr output to go. But why you couldn't
use redir with any DOS program?
