See the section in the Condor Manual 'Submitting Jobs Without a Shared 
File System', online at
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/manual/v7.6/2_5Submitting_Job.html#SECTION00354000000000000000

Along with the condor_submit man page section on file transfer options, 
this should answer all your questions in this area. Unless we missed 
something writing these Manual sections, in which case please let us 
know. :)

Re your stdout and stderr question - if you put:
  stream_output = true
  stream_error = true
in your job submit file, then stdout/err will be streamed back from the 
execute machine to the submit machine in real-time as the job runs.

Todd
