 NAME is name for process.  It is modified if necessary to make it unique.
 BUFFER is the buffer (or buffer name) to associate with the process.
- Process output goes at end of that buffer, unless you specify
- an output stream or filter function to handle the output.
- BUFFER may be also nil, meaning that this process is not associated
- with any buffer.

+Process output (both standard output and standard error streams) goes
+at end of BUFFER, unless you specify an output stream or filter
+function to handle the output.  BUFFER may also be nil, meaning that
+this process is not associated with any buffer.
+
 PROGRAM is the program file name.  It is searched for in PATH.
 Remaining arguments are strings to give program as arguments.
 
+If you want to separate standard output from standard error, invoke
+the command through a shell and redirect one of them using the shell
+syntax.
