[9fans] problems with redirection in rc

[Rudolf Sykora <rudolf.sykora@gmail.com>]

Hello everyone!

To get some useful information from a file I write:

; for (i in *_r) @{cd $i; echo -n $i^'	'; grep total otdit | grep -v na}

to get lines from the 'otdit' files in *_r subdirectories with the
word 'total' on them, but no 'na' on them. This works to my liking and
produces sth. like

10_r	total        :   9.4105E-01
11_r	total        :   9.3897E-01
12_r	total        :   9.3685E-01
13_r	total        :   9.3446E-01
14_r	total        :   9.3180E-01
15_r	total        :   9.2890E-01
16_r	total        :   9.2589E-01
17_r	total        :   9.2299E-01
18_r	total        :   9.1860E-01
...
9_r	total        :   9.4317E-01

Ok, now I wanted to save this, so I naively appended '> res'. But then
the contents of 'res' was only the last line:
9_r	total        :   9.4317E-01

Ok, so I thought '>> res' should be used instead. But then I got sth. like

^[];/home/sykora/CALC/doing/tests/9_r/-xeon4\a9_r	total        :   9.4317E-01
^[];/home/sykora/CALC/doing/tests/10_r/-xeon4\a10_r	total        :   9.4105E-01
^[];/home/sykora/CALC/doing/tests/11_r/-xeon4\a11_r	total        :   9.3897E-01
^[];/home/sykora/CALC/doing/tests/12_r/-xeon4\a12_r	total        :   9.3685E-01
^[];/home/sykora/CALC/doing/tests/13_r/-xeon4\a13_r	total        :   9.3446E-01
^[];/home/sykora/CALC/doing/tests/14_r/-xeon4\a14_r	total        :   9.3180E-01
^[];/home/sykora/CALC/doing/tests/15_r/-xeon4\a15_r	total        :   9.2890E-01
^[];/home/sykora/CALC/doing/tests/16_r/-xeon4\a16_r	total        :   9.2589E-01 ,

which quite surprised me... Can you tell me why this happens? I am running p9p.

Thanks
Ruda
