Subject: Does eshell support stderr redirection?
Date: Wed, 26 Jun 2013 20:51:24 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87fvw5c9wz.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)


It seems that eshell doesn't support stderr redirection with the syntax
like "my-prog 2>my-file". For instance, for a c snippet,

// test-stderr.c
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void) {
  fprintf(stderr, "stderr\n");
  fprintf(stdout, "stdout\n");
  return 0;
}

when I compile and run

> gcc test-stderr.c -o test-stderr
> test-stderr 2>my-file

eshell still has output to the screen and `my-file' is blank. However,
when I run:

> test-stderr >my-file

`my-file' contains both stdout and stderr output but no output to *eshell*.

So is there any way to tell eshell to handle it?

Thanks,
Hongxu Chen
