How to redirect to another dir?
heres the question:
1. cd to my home directory. Create a command string that will list ALL of the files entries with a last modification date of:
October 10
Save the output to a file in your home directory called listing.
Note: The command string should include the grep command.
A) What command string did you use?


I used this command to display the information but im having a hard time redirect the out to my home dir.


ls -l | grep 'Oct 10'


any ideas?


Thanks
