Supress screen output...
I need to suppress the output to the screen. I am appending to a file so do not need the output on the screen in the CLI environment.
eg.
cat $HOME/somefile >> $HOME/anotherfile
I am doing this a number of times with SQL output files so I can look at the finished file not on the screen in the CLI environment.
