Bruce,
# Create two new files
echo 'b' | tee aa.aa aaa.aa
# Append 'b' to two existing files
echo 'b' | tee -a aa.aa aaa.aa
Strongly recommend getting "Unix In A NutShell" from O'Reilly and peruse it periodically; it is an excellent reference for all such things and will make you far more invaluable in researching and solving these kinds of problems.

Subject: simple echo into multiple files...
morn/quick question...
say you have
aa.aa
aaa.aa
is there a "simple" way to do
echo 'b' > *.aa
this doesn't work, gets a redirection error
I know one can write a quick bash/shell loop.. any other ways?
thanks
