Some senseless babbling from Mark Kimes to Mike Ruskai on 07-22-94  18:32...

 MR>I would like to redirect the output of the SAY command to a text
 MR>file which is referred to, but I do not know how to redirect the
 MR>SAY command.

 MK> /* test.cmd */
 MK> '{at}echo off'
 'dir > temp'
 MK> say 'Did it work, doc?'

 MK> At the command line:  TEST > TEMP2

 MK> Temp contains the directory listing, temp2 contains "Did it work,
 MK> doc?" sans quotes.

That redirects the output of the entire program, which I do not want to do.  
Is there a way to redirect a single SAY statement within the program?
