redirect time command output to file (cygwin bash)
I have set up a bash script to run a long list of things that I need to time. I would like to redirect the output of time to a file. I have set it up like,
Code:
echo "Runtimes for servlet 4, 100K structures" > test_times.txt
echo "" >> test_times.txt

echo "runs where N=10" >> test_times.txt
echo "" >> test_times.txt

echo "run1 test_intput.txt -n 4 -t 1000 -l 100 -d t -N 10" >> test_times.txt
   time -a test_times.txt \
   ./myProgram.exe -a arguments -i inputFile -o outputFile
echo "" >> test_times.txt

I get a bash error for -a: command not found.

Am I doing something wrong here??? I thought that time -a filename would append to the file.
