Quoted from Bash-Prog-Intro-Howto:
All about redirection
3.1.
Theory and quick reference
There are 3 file descriptors, stdin, stdout and stderr (std=standard).
Basically you can:
1. redirect stdout to a file
2. redirect stderr to a file
3. redirect stdout to a stderr
4. redirect stderr to a stdout
5. redirect stderr and stdout to a file
6. redirect stderr and stdout to stdout
7. redirect stderr and stdout to stderr
1 'represents' stdout and 2 stderr.
A little note for seeing this things: with the less command you can
view both stdout (which will remain on the buffer) and the stderr that
will be printed on the screen, but erased as you try to 'browse' the
buffer.
3.2. Sample: stdout 2 file
This will cause the ouput of a program to be written to a file.
ls -l > ls-l.txt
Here, a file called 'ls-l.txt' will be created and it will contain
what you would see on the screen if you type the command 'ls -l' and
execute it.
3.3. Sample: stderr 2 file
This will cause the stderr ouput of a program to be written to a file.
grep da * 2> grep-errors.txt
Here, a file called 'grep-errors.txt' will be created and it will con­
tain what you would see the stderr portion of the output of the 'grep
da *' command.
3.4.
Sample: stdout 2 stderr
This will cause the stderr ouput of a program to be written to the
same filedescriptor than stdout.
grep da * 1>&2
Here, the stdout portion of the command is sent to stderr, you may
notice that in differen ways.
3.5. Sample: stderr 2 stdout
This will cause the stderr ouput of a program to be written to the
same filedescriptor than stdout.
grep * 2>&1
Here, the stderr portion of the command is sent to stdout, if you pipe
to less, you'll see that lines that normally 'dissapear' (as they are
written to stderr) are being kept now (because they're on stdout).
3.6. Sample: stderr and stdout 2 file
This will place every output of a program to a file. This is suitable
sometimes for cron entries, if you want a command to pass in absolute
silence.
rm -f $(find / -name core) &> /dev/null
This (thinking on the cron entry) will delete every file called 'core'
in any directory. Notice that you should be pretty sure of what a com­
mand is doing if you are going to wipe it's output. |
