2783.0. "Detached process error messages" by TOWNS::RUFFIEUX () Thu May 17 1990 11:18

    Does anybody know where XLib error messages go when the process running
    is a detached process.
    
    i.e. sys$output,sys$error...
    
    
    Thanks,

    As with most VMS error messages, they should be written to SYS$ERROR. 
    And if SYS$OUTPUT is different form SYS$ERROR, they also get written
    there.
    
    Of course, if your detached process has nothing defined for SYS$OUTPUT
    and SYS$ERROR, then the messages just go into the bit bucket.
