<p>2>&1 means send stderr output to the current stdout file handle. The trouble is, you have not yet changed the stdout file handle, so stderr is still going to the console. Put the initial, stdout, redirect first; like this:</p>
<p>et.x86 > 2>&1 ~/tce.log</p>

<br>
I have a program that while it runs is constantly dumping information to the<br>
console.<br>
I am running this in KDE's console (KDE 4.3.5).<br>
I want to capture this data so I did the following:<br>
<br>
et.x86 2>&1> ~/.tce.log<br>
<br>
et.x86 is the executable.<br>
The file .tce.log is created in my home directory.<br>
The file contains no data even though the console is filled with text from the<br>
program.<br>
<br>
Am I missing something?<br>
Is there a way to grab text directly from the console window (from a bash<br>
script)?<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks for any help on this,<br>
<br>
Rob<br>
