OK, it sounds like things are now as they should be with respect to stderr, 
stdout, and -o stdout but I will have to see how CsoundVST runs now on 
Linux.

About option parsing, I would not expect .csd filenames to occur in .csd
files, only .orc or .sco filenames.

Could you explain exactly how are .orc and .sco filenames used in a CSD
(an example would be welcome), with all possible combinations in CsOptions
(orc only, sco only, orc&sco, csd etc.) ? Also, how about using orc/sco/csd
names in .csoundrc (you also made that valid), what is the use of that ?
