Message-ID: <19990609094032.A15964@astaroth.nit.gwu.edu> Mail-Followup-To: ZSH Users Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.95i is there currently some way to reproduce the effect of the tee command in the shell itself, and if not, what do people think of the idea of adding that ability (either by new file redirectors or by making tee a builtin)? a couple of times recently, i've been caused many problems by the fact that tee is a standalone program, and as such doesn't care about the value of options like clobber; since tee _is_ basically just another form of file redirection, it would be nice to have it's behaviour be consistent with the other forms provided by the shell. -- sweth. -- Sweth Chandramouli IS Coordinator, The George Washington University / (202) 994 - 8521 (V) / (202) 994 - 0458 (F) *
