Kassen, on unix stderr ends up in the console, the issue (if I understand
correctly) is when you want to pipe the output of chuck --probe to a file.
I just tried chuck -h > file.txt, and it's the same there, file.txt ends up
empty and I get the help output on the console. I'd say it's a bug, plain
and simple - unix apps don't commonly behave that way.

yessss -- so true!! gonna save this to the List of Chuckian Wisdom.
Can we also revive "powertools can maim" as a slogan?
all (or at least most) of chuck system output/log is to stderr... I can't quite remember why... -- I think it's to avoid issues regarding buffering on the stdout stream. For example, it's possible for a crash to occur right after printing an important message to stdout, but the text may or may not actually print without an explicit flush. This does not happen with stderr.
That is all good and well, but not very satisfactory. We now need to wonder why Stderr does not end up in the console where it belongs in that configuration.
I'd want to see my errors, they are nice to collect and occasionally even useful for diagnostics.
