Re: bash NEWBIE I/O and I/O redirection problems

Hi,

it comes to me that there is a better way to make the redirection via "tee"
less ugly in the code. It does not depend on the assumption that the log
file path is a single word.

First define in the script:

  # Shell function which lets "tee" consume its standard input
  my_log() {
    tee -i -a "$HOME/my_logfile"
  }

Then use it in the same script like
 
    echo "Block count: "$blocks | my_log


Have a nice day :)

Thomas
