tee(1)


tee -- pipe fitting

Synopsis

tee [-i] [-a] [file] . . .

Description

tee transcribes the standard input to the standard output and makes copies in the files. The sole purpose of tee is to serve, as its name implies, as a ``T'' in a pipe. For example, the command
   grep pattern file1 | tee file2 | wc -l 

catches the output of grep in file2 without having to reexecute the command.

The available options are:

-i
Ignore interrupts.

-a
Append output to the files rather than overwriting them.

Files

/usr/lib/locale/locale/LC_MESSAGES/uxcore.abi
language-specific message file. (See LANG on environ(5).)
