I think the case he means is this: test.sh: #! /bin/bash output="FOO" build() { output="BAR" echo $output } echo $output build 2>&1 | tee buildlog echo $output # end ./test.sh FOO BAR FOO Which, after thinking a little about it, is the way we want this to happen, yes? _______________________________________________ pacman-dev mailing list pacman-dev@archlinux.org http://archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/pacman-dev
