hi there,
this have been mentioned before somewhere
but I seem to have lost it.

if I want to send the output of an operation
like 'make world' to a file > makeworld.log

then be able to tail makeworld.log
to see what is happening there, what is the
operand or directive to use

I think something like 2>1 & not sure of the
exact way though, any help ?
thanks
