Considering the speed with which the verfying/updating lines zipped by in this most recent update, I found myself wanting a a way to go back and look at what happened during the update, even if it just verified 99% of the files.
Is there some commands I can append to the steam update line, or add as a second line in a shell script, to dump the output to a file (a la > log.txt)?
Any normal shell redirect works fine. What I generally do is this: "./steam -update tfc . 2>&1 >> steam.log". Seems to work just fine, but you don't get any console output.
To the list in general: thanks for noting the problem where Steam wipes your config files. I backed them all up first, server.cfg and liblist.gam got wiped.
