You are right that I mistakenly thought I was running the gnu time program when I was really using the bash time argument. Am I right in guessing that this reports the time it takes the bash command to execute and not the time it takes the program to run, or is there a difference?
GNU time gives more detailed output, such a page faults, etc. I thought I tried /usr/bin/time at some point, but that didn't work. I will have to give that a try and see if I can get it working. Which says that it's there. One of the issues I as thinking of is that the log file already exists, so I would want -a, but I didn't know if I could do -a without first having used -o to create the file.
This is the current version of the script,
It seems as if some of the multiple echo statements could be reduced using the here-document that Corona688 suggested. I will look into that. It also seems that I could echo a couple of newlines at once instead of doing it several times to insert several blank lines.
Hello All,
I am trying to write a script that would capture the output of time command on a Sun machine.
I have tried these commands
$ time ls > out
$ time ls 2> out
I just get the ls output in the out file for the first one.
Thanks for any help
