     <code>clamscan</code> writes all regular program messages to <SPAN  CLASS="textbf">stdout</SPAN> and
     errors/warnings to <SPAN  CLASS="textbf">stderr</SPAN>. You can use the option <code>--stdout</code>
     to redirect all program messages to <SPAN  CLASS="textbf">stdout</SPAN>. Warnings and error
     messages from <code>libclamav</code> are always printed to <SPAN  CLASS="textbf">stderr</SPAN>.
     A typical output from <code>clamscan</code> looks like this:
     <PRE>
 	/tmp/test/removal-tool.exe: Worm.Sober FOUND
 	/tmp/test/md5.o: OK
 	/tmp/test/blob.c: OK
 	/tmp/test/message.c: OK
 	/tmp/test/error.hta: VBS.Inor.D FOUND
 </PRE>
     When a virus is found its name is printed between the <code>filename:</code> and
     <code>FOUND</code> strings. In case of archives the scanner depends on libclamav
     and only prints the first virus found within an archive:
     <PRE>
 	zolw@localhost:/tmp$ clamscan malware.zip 
 	malware.zip: Worm.Mydoom.U FOUND
 </PRE>
