By default, stderr and stdout go to the terminal. You can redirect stderr to go to stdout using 2>&1 (file number 2 is stderr and 1 is stdout). > These are permission denied errors scrolling down the screen.

Output redirection and background/foreground processes are two different issues. Output can still be put to a terminal when a process is run in the background. If you want to run a program in the background, redirect stdout to a file and discard stderr, you can: $ find / -name NAME >/tmp/find.out 2>/dev/null & dd -- David Dooling _______________________________________________ CWE-LUG mailing list [email protected] http://www.cwelug.org/ http://www.cwelug.org/archives/ http://www.cwelug.org/mailinglist/
