Twist!

Hi Scott / Franklin,

i want the output of the following command "cleartool diff" be stored in a file -
i used :
Code:
xargs -n1 -I{} < latest.txt ksh -c "cleartool diff -pre -ser  {} > diff.txt"

and this worked

BUT

when I am trying to modify the statement to:
Code:
xargs -n1 -I{} < latest.txt ksh -c "autotest {} > result.txt"

I am seeing only a first few lines of the output is being redirected to result.txt but the actual report is coming on the screen! Ideally I want the report displayed in the screen to come to result.txt
Note: auottest is a custommade script which taked individual file names from latest.txt and runs.

Please help!Smilie
