tee to a file descriptor

$ tee >(cat &#8211; >&2)

the tee command does fine with file names, but not so much with file descriptors, such as &2. This uses process redirection to tee to the specified descriptor.

In the sample output, it’s being used to tee to stderr, which is connected with the terminal, and to wc -l, which is also outputting to the terminal. The result is the output of bash –version followed by the linecount

Bash Examples – Mistakes to Avoid

2010-07-23 1 min read Bash Linux

A bash script is a text file containing a list of commands to be executed by the bash shell. A long time back, I had written a guide on Bash scripting which teaches you the basic syntax of bash scripts in a mere 10 seconds.

Paste clipboard is bash or shell scripts with modification.

2010-07-20 1 min read Bash Linux

Today I had a issue where I wanted to paste the clipboard to a shell script after removing the spaces. So, I went hunting for a way to do this. Finally I came up with this:

sudo yum install xclip

Then you can paste the clipboard content using ”xclip -o”. So now the problem is reduced to selecting the required info and doing :

xclip -o |sed ’s/ //g’
