possible for "virtuoso" command line SKILL script execution to output to STDOUT?

MOSFET

Suppose I have the following command to call a SKILL script:

virtuoso -nographE -nocdsinit -replay mywrapperscript.il

mywrapperscript.il contains the following:

(load "myscript.il")

(foo "arg1" "arg2" "arg3")

exit

When I run the virtuoso command at the top of my post, nothing is printed to STDOUT, regardless of whether or not the script runs successfully.  The only way I know to get any output is to add the "-log <filename" option to the virtuoso call above.  Is there a way to have the virtuoso command print everything to STDOUT?  Running "virtuoso -help" doesn't show any such option, but I just wanted to ask here in case I was missing something.

    If you use -restore rather than -replay it will do what you want. Given that -replay is primarily to replay an existing log file for (say) QA or test case reproduction purposes, there's not really a need (normally) to display the output as well as to a log file. The -restore option was mainly intended for restoring a "session file" (saved via Options->Save Session) which restores windows etc, but in practice it's just like running and then doing load("mywrapperscript.il") after startup.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
