Hi. I'm sorry to be dense, but I don't understand the 2&1 syntax. I
thought the & put a process in the background but I've seen examples
of using a double && to separate commands. Is this shell-specific?
At 11:53 PM 3/4/2006, you wrote:
Option 2: You have a command whose output you want to save. You can
do this by using the > symbol to redirect standard output. Example:
ls >filelist.txt
Note that this only captures standard output. If you need standard
error as well, you'll need to do something like this:
make >output.txt 2>&1
This method is only of any use with programs which aren't interactive.
