Tip: If you would like to write the output directly to a file rather than to the console, just pipe the output into a new file. For example, the command "websitelinkchecker.exe http://www.matthewrenze.com/ > Output.txt" would pipe the console output into a file called "Output.txt". You will not, however, see any progress occur in the console window until the application has completed.
