How to suppress console output in Python?
Currently I am using pygame to read joystick input and I have the following issue that I need to solve.
When calling functions in the joystick module such as get_axis() or get_button() the function prints out lines such as SDL_JoystickGetButton value:0: I need to disable the output of these lines to the console.

How to suppress console output in Python?
But this post does not supply enough information. Because if I have to turn off DEBUG, I would like to know the steps on how to do that. So far I have downloaded the pygame source and went into joystick.c and commented out the lines that print to the console, and then I ran the setup.py, but the joystick functions still print out to the console. Also I am using Python 2.6 and pygame 1.9.1.
This thread should resolve this: printf statements 1.9.1
I had this same issue except when running under PyScripter it causes a huge memory leak in PyScripter itself. So it was eating up all my memory on my machine. Nasty interaction.
