No output redirection used. I checked the resulting output file and found the errors written there. I expected the error to go to stderr, but instead the progress bar is showing up on stderr and stdout is empty. Am I reading the manual page correctly? I am trying to migrate from wget to curl, so perhaps I am confusing the issue by my past usage of wget. But I need to capture errors reliably, so any help would be greatly appreciated."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/bagder/curl/issues/comments/116296540","html_url":"https://github.com/bagder/curl/issues/328#issuecomment-116296540","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/bagder/curl/issues/328","id":116296540,"user":{"login":"jvvv","id":1558293,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1558293?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/jvvv","html_url":"https://github.com/jvvv","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jvvv/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jvvv/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jvvv/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jvvv/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jvvv/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jvvv/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jvvv/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jvvv/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jvvv/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-06-28T16:35:23Z","updated_at":"2015-06-28T16:35:23Z","body":"Thanks so much for your help. The -f option is what I needed; the -w option looks to be very useful. Sorry to use your time this way. If I have any future issues, I will direct my questions to the mailing list first. I completely missed the -f and -w options. Very embarrassing, but done and can't be undone. Thanks again."}}
