here-doc convert 2 script convert to single script?
I have my main script calling another script to retrive a "ls -alt" of a directory that's located in a remote location I'm sftping into.

main.sh

Code:
#!/bin/ksh
getLS.sh > output.txt

getLS.sh

Code:
#!/bin/sh
/home<..>/sftp <host@ip> <<!
cd /some/dir/Log
ls -alt
quit
!

Basically I'd like to be able to combine the second script into the first and not have to call a second script.

Would this work?

Code:
#!/bin/sh
/home<..>/sftp <host@ip> <<!
cd /some/dir/Log
ls -alt
quit
!
> output.txt

If it does work, why does it work?
I've always been using the stdout redirect like this:
command > output..

I didn't know you could do
command1
command2
command3
> output..

I don't have the sftp handy right now, but Solaris' stock ftp client can store the ouput of the 'ls' on the local machine.

If no local file is specified, or if local-file is

Also:

Code:
/home<..>/sftp <host@ip> <<! > output.txt 2>&1
