redirecting script output
Hello,
I am interested in taking the output from a script i wrote and using it as input to a different script i wrote. So for example i want to take the output from program2 and use it as a parameter for program1. I didnt think i could use the >> symbols because i think that is just for .txt files. And i thought about piping the code from program1 into program2. However i dont really know how the syntax would look for a solution like this. So does anyone have a suggestion? Thanks.
