Oh, you mean the welcome message was going directly to stdout, while info-port was always going to stderr? I see. Perhaps we need yet another port, say `greeting-port' (or even `welcome-port', although that would sound too whimsical to me [1]), which would go by default to stdout and can be redirected as needed? Sounds a bit heavy-handed, but would tick all backwards-compat boxes. Cheers [1] Whimsical names, like ice-9 or car come back to haunt you, 10 or 50 years later. -- tomás
