thanks for you thoughts... but i want to embed the logging inside my script. For every line of output to the screen it will also append to a log file.

can i do something like this

LOG="logfile.txt"
printf "some text to scree" |& tee $LOG;

But the think is i would have to do that for every single line, i was wonderfing if there's a more effiecient way to log the whole execution of my script as opposed to line by line.

thanks.

CPANPLUS::Shell(3pm)					 Perl Programmers Reference Guide				      CPANPLUS::Shell(3pm)

NAME

       CPANPLUS::Shell - base class for CPANPLUS shells

SYNOPSIS

	   use CPANPLUS::Shell; 	    # load the shell indicated by your
					    # config -- defaults to
					    # CPANPLUS::Shell::Default

	   use CPANPLUS::Shell qw[Classic]  # load CPANPLUS::Shell::Classic;

	   my $ui      = CPANPLUS::Shell->new();
	   my $name    = $ui->which;	    # Find out what shell you loaded

	   $ui->shell;			    # run the ui shell

DESCRIPTION

       This module is the generic loading (and base class) for all "CPANPLUS" shells. Through this module you can load any installed "CPANPLUS"
       shell.

       Just about all the functionality is provided by the shell that you have loaded, and not by this class (which merely functions as a generic
       loading class), so please consult the documentation of your shell of choice.
