I no longer have your original email so I need you to refersh my memory. What is your goal in wanting to capture all of the output of the script? Does it *have* to be in Script format? Is it just for logging of debugging? Does the following help you? You can put the following in your script: #---------- Start of script ------------------- #!/bin/sh -x ( #---------------------------------------------- # Example body of script grep term /this_file_does_not_exist # will cause output to stderr grep term /usr/include/sys/termios.h # will cause output to stdout #---------- End of script --------------------- ) > myoutput.lst 2>&1 #---------------------------------------------- All output including the commands issued will end up in 'myoutput.lst'. This will work for Bourne derivatives (bash, ksh, etc.) also. ________________________________ Glen Coakley, Sr. Software Engineer MQSoftware Inc., (763) 543-4845 "Tinkero ergo sum." -- Chuck Murcko > -----Original Message----- > From: Perry Dykes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Saturday, June 30, 2001 12:22 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: Unix "script" utility continued... cygwin newbie need a > porting expert's help. > > > Whoops, here is the source. > > And here is how I'm compiling: > > gcc -I../lib script.c -o script.exe > > Hoping maybe a better command line parm list to avoid problem in > previous post. > > Regards, > Perry > -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
