I know that in Z shell its really easy. omething like: Code: echo "test" >> file1 >> file2 Would work. But in Bash it doesn't seem that easy. I know that tee will send the output to 2 files but it also sends it to STDOUT.Something like:Code: echo "test" | tee -a file1 file2 Would put the word "test" in file1, file2, and STDOUT. Is there a way to just send the output to file1 and file2?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI understand that $! is the PID of a command. For example:
Code: #!/bin/bash
myprogram &
echo "PID of myprogram is $!"
I'd like to send the output of "myprogram" to both console and to a log file using the "tee" command but I also want to store the PID of "myprogam". Something like this:
Code: #!/bin/bash
myprogram | tee ./logfile &
echo "PID of myprogram is $!"
The problem is that $! is now the PID of "tee" rather than the PID of "myprogram".
