I know this must have been asked 1000 times before, but I haven't been
able to find the answer.  I would appreciate it if someone can just
point me to the relevant information.

How can I redirect (or just suppress) output from a program that is
going to stderr rather than stdout?

I have a program (no source code) that insists on writing liberal
amounts of information on what it's doing on the screen.  Redirecting
stdout only gets rid of some of the verbosity.  I know stderr can be
redirected if the program is called from within another program, but
I don't want to do that because space is at a premium.

Ideally, I need a command that I could use from a batch file before
and after running the program that would send all stderr output to
somewhere other than the screen.

Any help will be much appreciated.
