Huh? Yes, they do get executed. But since you redirected output to the file hlds-output.file you won't see them on screen. Check the file and you should see the output. Works for me. If you want to capture the output of the server in a file and at the same time have it echoed to your console, use the command 'tee': ./hlds_run -game valve | tee hlds-output.file > So to paint the big picture, I'd like to be able to pass the "status" > command to the serevr, pipe the output through a program (that i made) and > catch the output in a file. And the problem there is what? Are you actually wanting to run the server in the background? If you made that program, why don't you have it dump the output to a file and echo it back to the console? I'm not sure I quite understand.
