I found a good solution, here is the command:
ls > file1.txt | cat file1.txt > file2.txt
Not so wise OldWiseKing. :)
I don't know what the pipe is for, but I don't think that will work.
file2.txt will likely end up empty.
Maybe you meant:
ls > file1.txt; cat file1.txt > file2.txt
What you really want as someone else mentioned is a tee as in:
ls |tee file1.txt > file2.txt
It's a lot cleaner and probably more efficient.
