description
Tee is a filter which copies the standard input to a file and to the standard output. It can be used to obtain a log copy of the activities of some command.
examples
% List -u * | Tee UnbackedUpFiles.txt
. . .
%
warnings
Tee catches ViewerIO.Rubout, so if it is started reading from the keyboard, a DEL will stop it. It also catches IO.Error, so an unexpectedly closed stream will not break it.
stop/undo
Click the STOP! button or type DEL (if Tee is reding from the keyboard).
implementation
InitialCommandsImpl.mesa in CommandTool.df
