execute a command silently or quietly within a shell
How do I suspend output of commands and tools that sometimes utter unwanted output? I know that I can always pipe to null or some such thing, but is there a simpler more elegant (i.e. accepted) practice?
I really have to learn to phrase more carefully. I didn't mean to imply error output, but really just the FYI kind of messages that might complement the actual work or output of a tool. Something like "...done. 5 instances found", where the work was desired, but the chit chat wasn't.
If I remember correctly, in DOS this was accomplished by preceding the statement with an apostrophe. Now it's done by "echo off".
