In other words, print on both the screen and to a file (minus stdout)? Thanks again in advance
Redirect stderr to stdout then redirect stdout to /dev/null and then pipe tee to filename...sequence is important i.e. redirecting stderr to stdout comes before piping stdout to /dev/null. Thogh there is no need for swapping stdout with stderr as the following is ok...

Doubt regarding using "exec" command to redirect the STDERR to a file. e.g I did it this way.

I am trying to use one global declaration --> "exec 2>$ERR" to capture all stderr outputs that may occur anywhere in my script.
Then close it at the end of the script using --> "exec 2<&-"

I was running a script using bash where there is some write to pipe error at some point causing the tee command to exit abruptly while the script continues to run. The newer version of tee seems to prevent... (2 Replies)

mount_fdesc
MOUNT_FDESC(8) BSD System Manager's Manual MOUNT_FDESC(8)NAME
mount_fdesc -- mount the file-descriptor file system
SYNOPSIS
mount_fdesc [-o options] fdesc mount_point
DESCRIPTION
The mount_fdesc command attaches an instance of the per-process file descriptor namespace to the global filesystem namespace. The conven-
tional mount point is /dev and the filesystem should be union mounted in order to augment, rather than replace, the existing entries in /dev.
The directory specified by mount_point is converted to an absolute path before use.
This command is normally executed by mount(8) at boot time.
The options are as follows:
-o Options are specified with a -o flag followed by a comma separated string of options. See the mount(8) man page for possible options
and their meanings.
The contents of the mount point are fd, stderr, stdin, stdout and tty.
fd is a directory whose contents appear as a list of numbered files which correspond to the open files of the process reading the directory.
The files /dev/fd/0 through /dev/fd/# refer to file descriptors which can be accessed through the file system. If the file descriptor is
open and the mode the file is being opened with is a subset of the mode of the existing descriptor, the call:
fd = open("/dev/fd/0", mode);
and the call:
fd = fcntl(0, F_DUPFD, 0);
are equivalent.
The files /dev/stdin, /dev/stdout and /dev/stderr appear as symlinks to the relevant entry in the /dev/fd sub-directory. Opening them is
equivalent to the following calls:
fd = fcntl(STDIN_FILENO, F_DUPFD, 0);
fd = fcntl(STDOUT_FILENO, F_DUPFD, 0);
fd = fcntl(STDERR_FILENO, F_DUPFD, 0);
Flags to the open(2) call other than O_RDONLY, O_WRONLY and O_RDWR are ignored.
The /dev/tty entry is an indirect reference to the current process's controlling terminal. It appears as a named pipe (FIFO) but behaves in
exactly the same way as the real controlling terminal device.
