User's default shell is csh. And presumably when User su's, his shell becomes the Bourne shell. The machine is running 3.1, btw. (Does anyone know if it is the same on Solaris 7?) Almost all I do on the machine has to be done as root, so we are talking Bourne shell. I'd like a simple formula for sending stdout and stderr to a file when I run make. The man page has me totally confused. In other words: command [some incantation involving 12&> and a filename, possibly with |] which lets me see what's going on on the screen and save the same stuff to a file.
