Thank you Flying_Meat Smilie

I'm trying to do like you suggest in my scripts...

But, there isn't in your opinion a way to simply duplicate the standard error?
To let have it "as a copy" in the logfile when the sript is lauched, and still can use it inside the script.
Something like the tee command do for standard output.
