Comment:

 I now added a message. I didn't want to over-engineer this issue, and
 certainly didn't want to rewrite all the redirection code. I just found it
 odd that the output of one process is missing when redirecting, which can
 be inconvenient. I now added a message to the request. The change can now
 be summarized by:

 - also redirect stdout/stderr of process 0 if requested. This means that
 nothing is going "to the screen" anymore in that case.
 - Add a message (before the redirection) that hints the user about this
 fact, and suggests using 'tail -f' as possible way to follow the output.
