My own opinion could easily be influenced by having some hands-on time with
actual code, and I suspect even Guido could be influenced if he could pull
some things up in his editor and take a look around.

I've uploaded a prototype here:<br>

It's a clone of Python trunk, so if you already have a trunk handy,
clone that first then "hg pull -u" from the above and it'll go a lot
quicker.<br>
<br>
The prototype adds some commands to Argument Clinic that allow you
to specify where each bit of its output goes. You have four
choices:<br>
<ul>
<li>You can write to the output block as before.</li>
<li>You can buffer up the text for writing out later in the same
file.</li>
<li>You can write to a file on the side.</li>
<li>Or you can throw it away.</li>
</ul>
To learn how to run your own experiments, read
"CLINIC.BUFFER.NOTES.TXT" in the root of the repository. For your
tl;dr pleasure I've included recipes for the proposed approaches so
far.<br>
<br>
I don't propose to check in the prototype in its current state. But
it should be sufficient for running everybody's experiments. (If
there's something you want to try that my prototype doesn't support,
contact me and I should be able to throw in a feature for you.)<br>
<br>
<br>
Happy experimenting,<br>
