Hi Joseph,

The default of both :out and :err is "-",
which is STDOUT and STDERR.  This is
similar to curl's "--output -" which send
to the STDOUT.

What I find puzzling is where else would they
be going?

Can I modify :out to :out("eraseme.txt") and
have the output go to a file (eraseme.txt)
instead of STDOUT?  That would be kind of cool.

Yours in puzzlement,
