​I've read all the replies. And tried some really strange things myself.
The closest that I can come to what you want (and it is not all that close)
is to use the "script" program to run your program.

script -c 'somecmd p1 parm2 --option' logfile.txt

Both stdout & stderr come to the terminal & get written to logfile.txt​ .
There is no way, that I know of, to put stdout into "logfile.txt" but
suppress it from the terminal.
