Thank you Peter, but if I wanted to get all the output, I wouldn't
redirect it to /dev/null in the first place.  I am not interested in
getting an email on standard output each time the program runs.  I only
want to receive email from cron daemon when error messages are involved;
that's why, I redirect the output to /dev/null:

 sh program >/dev/null

The script 'program' includes several sqr programs and other shell
programs.  I get an email from cron when error messages are produced by
the shell programs in the script; however, it seems that sqr programs send
their error messages, along with their normal output to Standard Output;
hence, they go to /dev/null;( I wonder if there is any way around that.
