Doesn't work for me. The --help option causes an error (-h works fine) but
the usage stuff comes out OK but will not redirect or pipe.  Apparently
Python console output is directed to stderr which will not redirect - I'm
talking version 2.1.1.  The Traceback errors also are sent to stderr.  There
are, however, some error messages I get that look as though they come from
PySol that are sent to stdout, these do redirect and pipe OK.

Yet.

I'm waiting! :-) -- In the mean time I have downloaded the three windows
packages and will play a bit with them.
