Basically i am writing a script which does the following
1.) creates a file name as:
2.) echos some html tags >> to the same file name
3.) takes info from command showrev -p and then >> to the same file
4.) echos closing html tags and then >> to the same file
The issue is, This is for log keeping purposes, so i want to include the time, so that when the time changes the patch info will be spit into files per data/time for easy referencing. but if the script runs between changes in time i get two halves of the file seperate instead of 1 complete file
work around?

OK i guess im being too vague... lemme type this beast out...
SO my problem again is it makes 2 files during the time change, How can i redirect the info into the file just created. Do i need to set the time of the script running to a variable, then reference the file redirect to the variable? or should i just be lazy and drop the time portion of date all togather.
Yeah now that i think about it this is prolly the way to go, The reason i didnt do it that way in the first place was.
1.) i dont know Solaris Variables(create/set)
2.) I wasnt sure if the Variable would stay static or would update with the time as well. It is after all a VARIABLE. but ill test and figure out variables.
