Hi Thomas, The sample registers an ErrorHandler which prints every error reported to it to System.err; each line prefixed with "[Fatal Error]", "[Error]" or "[Warning]". If you grep for those you should catch every error / warning emitted by the parser. The regular output from the sample is written to System.out. You cannot suppress it unless you wrap your own program around it which redirects the output elsewhere. There's no command line switch for that.
