Subject   st: Suppressing -log- in Linux batch mode

Hello everyone.  I'm using the following to run a -do- file in batch
mode on Linux:

nohup stata -b do mydofile &

That works fine except that I want to suppress the -log- file that
Stata automatically creates (for reasons that are too lengthy to
describe here). Does anyone know a command-line switch I could add to
prevent the -log- file from being created?

Let me mention that I realize I could edit the -do- file to insert
"quietly {" or similar solutions, but I would like leave the -do- file
unedited to retain the ability to create the -log- file sometimes. A
switch to easily turn the -log- file on and off from the command line
would be the perfect solution.  Is there such a method?

Thanks in advance!

- Ted
