A minute ago, I asked if there was a way to change input redirection
on the fly from within a program.

Is there a way to use stream_$errin? What is error input? Where does
it come from? I tried an ios_$get on stream_$errin, and it told me
that no data was available on that stream.

If I could redirect standard input to a file, then I'd REALLY like to
redirect error input to the keyboard, if errin is something I can
use. Any ideas?

Thanks again.
