HELP POPDEVERR Revised by Fran Evelyn, July 85
popdeverr -> device
POPDEVERR is an active variable which holds the device for the standard error
channel (written to by *CHARERR). Assigning to it,
<device> -> popdeverr
enables a new device to be assigned to the standard channel, and can be used
along with updating POPDEVIN and POPDEVERR to redirect standard I/O after
SYSFORKing a child process, and before SYSEXECUTEing a new image.
