Disabling STDOUT in timequest

How come you're using report_timing? That's more of a high-level function that is meant to provide all the information(and therefore not meant to be called thousands of times). More specifically, how are you getting low-level delay information out of it? Are you dumping everything to a text file and then parsing that?

My thought is that you'd probably want to use get_path and get_path_info, or something like that. (At a prompt type "quartus_sh --qhelp" and then click on STA on the top-left window, and you'll find get_path on the right, as well as a ton of other functions.)

Out of curiosity, what information are you trying to pull out, and what are you doing with that information? Just curious if it's something others would find beneficial.
