Redirection Problem
I was simply trying to redirect some output in a log file but it foxed me.

truss a.out > log

It gave only the output of the a.out which was only a simple print "Hello"

Then I tried

truss a.out 2&1>a
echo `truss a.out` > a

All failed.

What am i missing.
Thanks

Check out man bash under the title

Redirecting Standard Output and Standard Error

Basically it says, redirect standard output and standard error to output.

Another way to do it (and also find the answer to the original redirection question....)

man truss

Code:
-o outfile
           File to be used for the trace output. By default,  the
           output goes to standard error.

Cheers

I knew it, but sometimes Smilie
