These parse errors aren't in actuality errors though. Since the string is being sent to bc every time the user enters a character, there are going to be piles and piles of these inevitable parse errors as they enter their equations.

Setting to /dev/null sounds like what I want to do... Do I just put that in a file handle, as below? What exactly is /dev/null? what is the whole /dev directory for, for that matter? I can't even open it in Finder, and Terminal lists all sorts of very interesting and mysterious items. Thanks for all your help.

calculatorTask = [[NSTask alloc] init];
[calculatorTask setStandardError:[NSFileHandle fileHandleForWritingAtPath:@"/dev/null"];

What you should probably do is instead set stderr to /dev/null.

Or if you would /like/ to save the errors instead of tossing them, save them to somewhere the consumer could access easily to help you debug (in case they do run into a legitimate problem). Such as ~/Library/Application\ Support/MyApp/error.log

Better to keep error logs in my opinion.
