Re: living in the consolex

With the console screen reader I use, I find adding

2> /dev/null

to the end of the command line does well to prevent junk text being
read over the audio being played by the program.

2> (the numeral 2 followed by the greater than/right angle bracket)
tells the terminal to redirect error messages to a file. /dev/null is
the null device and is a good candidate for redirecting output you
don't want.
