Command output redirection to file issues
Hi,
I have a peculiar issue w.r.t redirecting the command output to a file when using loop.
I am redirecting command output to same file in a series of if condition statements, but if one block of if condition statement writes the log to the file , the subsequent block of if condition satisfied command outputs not logged to the output file.
Second If condition statement will begin after completion of first if...fi block only.

RATFOR(1) General Commands Manual RATFOR(1)
NAME
ratfor - rational Fortran dialect
SYNOPSIS
ratfor [ option ... ] [ filename ... ]
DESCRIPTION
Ratfor converts a rational dialect of Fortran into ordinary irrational Fortran. Ratfor provides control flow constructs essentially iden-
tical to those in C:
statement grouping:
{ statement; statement; statement }
decision-making:
if (condition) statement [ else statement ]
switch (integer value) {
case integer: statement
...
[ default: ] statement
}
loops: while (condition) statement
for (expression; condition; expression) statement
do limits statement
repeat statement [ until (condition) ]
break
next
and some syntactic sugar to make programs easier to read and write:
free form input:
multiple statements/line; automatic continuation
comments:
# this is a comment
translation of relationals:
>, >=, etc., become .GT., .GE., etc.
return (expression)
returns expression to caller from function
define:
define name replacement
include:
include filename
Ratfor is best used with f77(1).
