Re: [Freedos-user] TEE truncates file

I tested TEE with commands like
DIR C: |TEE CDIR
MEM /d /f /x |TEE MAP
and it always truncates the files,that is,some lines that appear last on
screen do not appear in the file. I think this rules out the possibility
of screen output being a mix of stdout and stderr.
Can it be that TEE makes some copy mistake ?
This happens under kernel 2035, kwc38616 and also under DrDOS.

Just getting back to this ... a month late. My bad.
Ugh, I just looked at my TEE 1.0 source code, and it's fugly. Sorry
about that. But at least it's easy to follow:
After TEE find the output file name, it calls outtee() like this:
outtee (stdin, pFile, stdout);
Where 'pFile' is the file that you want to save a copy of stdin to.
I don't know why I write outtee() as a standalone function, cause it's
so short and simple. I wrote this when I was a student. Anyway, the
outtee() function just does this (brackets added for readability):
while ((ch = fgetc (pIn)) != EOF) {
if ((fputc (ch, pSave) == EOF) || (fputc (ch, pOut) == EOF)) {
return (FALSE);
}
}
return (TRUE);
That is, outtee() will keep reading a character at a time from stdin
(passed as 'pIn') until it reaches EOF. As it reads, it saves a copy of
the input to 'pSave' and prints a copy to 'pOut' (this is written as
saving a copy of the character to two output streams.) If there's an
I/O error while writing to 'pSave' (i.e. disk full) or if there's some
problem writing to stdout, then it quits.
I/O buffering could get in the way of this, I suppose.
