zenity progress and simultaneously terminal output
Hi,

I want to use zenity --progress and also put the output to the terminal.

I tried using the tee command but that puts the output to the terminal first and then shows the zenity progress dialog.

Take the normal example by the gnome manual:
Code:
      (
        echo "10" ; sleep 1
        echo "# Updating mail logs" ; sleep 1
        echo "20" ; sleep 1
        echo "# Resetting cron jobs" ; sleep 1
        echo "50" ; sleep 1
        echo "This line will just be ignored" ; sleep 1
        echo "75" ; sleep 1
        echo "# Rebooting system" ; sleep 1
        echo "100" ; sleep 1
        ) | tee zenity --progress \
          --title="Update System Logs" \
          --text="Scanning mail logs..." \
          --percentage=0

Is there any method to do both simultaneously?

Looks like nobody has got any solution??

The original code is this:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
       (
        echo "10" ; sleep 1
        echo "# Updating mail logs" ; sleep 1
        echo "20" ; sleep 1
        echo "# Resetting cron jobs" ; sleep 1
        echo "50" ; sleep 1
        echo "This line will just be ignored" ; sleep 1
        echo "75" ; sleep 1
        echo "# Rebooting system" ; sleep 1
        echo "100" ; sleep 1
        ) | zenity --progress \
          --title="Update System Logs" \
          --text="Scanning mail logs..." \
          --percentage=0

I want the output to be printed on the terminal also. Any solutions??
