Perhaps an unintended side effect of redirection?
programname >/path/to/datafile 2>&1 would cause data and error messages to be sent to the same file. You might not notice anything wrong unless errors or warnings occurred.
Or perhaps the text is not actually appearing in the files, and is just being broadcasted to your terminal, i.e. an old fashioned wall message like "the machine is shutting down NOW".

-s text Insert text at the start of the output.
-e text Insert text at the end of the output.
-b base URL base
-c configfile
Read @chapter lines from configfile (lines must be of the form "@chapter filename") and extract elements from each of those
files.
-h, -? Print command usage.
OPERANDS
The following operands are supported:
element-or-class
The name of an element to extract (e.g., "H2"), or the name of a class preceded by "." (e.g., ".example") or a combination of
both (e.g., "H2.example").
file-or-URL
A file name or a URL. To read from standard input, use "-".
ENVIRONMENT
To use a proxy to retrieve remote files, set the environment variables http_proxy and ftp_proxy. E.g., http_proxy="http://localhost:8080/"

Remote files (specified with a URL) are currently only supported for HTTP. Password-protected files or files that depend on HTTP "cookies"
are not handled. (You can use tools such as curl(1) or wget(1) to retrieve such files.)
