Subject: clobbering with >&
Date: Mon, 10 Jan 2000 19:57:17 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20000110195717.A1119@tdc100.comm.mot.com> (raw)
After using zsh for a while, I find myself gradually going back to the few
worthwhile features of csh, whch I used many years ago.
Here's something I don't see covered in the docs -- is it possible to
override the noclobber variable when doing output redirection with >&?
I've tried the obvious permutations of ! and | with it, but just get syntax
errors.
Never mind, I just answered my own question. It appears >&\! will do the
trick. Perhaps this should be documented.
Thanks to the workers for an amazing shell program.
