How would I start up a program and redirect all output, stdin, stdout and stderr, to a file? program >> program_output.log .... can someone explain what the 2>&1 stuff means, or give me a link somewhere. That would probably solve my problems also. I don't really understand the redirection that well, or which 2/1/0 are. -Josh _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota Help beta test TCLUG's potential new home: http://plone.mn-linux.org Got pictures for TCLUG?
