Folks, I have a question re ">&" and "2>&1" re-direction in Perl's sub-processes.
In my knowledge of Perl, backquotes and system() calls go to the Bourne shell, and not the C shell. So ">&" shouldn't work. It should be "2>&1". But I came across some code like this: > `my_prog >& my.out`; That code appears to work. Any hints or explanation would be gratefully accepted. peace, -- Kripa _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list [email protected] http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm
