While my knowledge on the subject is far from complete, this post is my attempt to share what I have learned with others.

tee to a file descriptor

1

$ 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

Linux command to repeat a string n times - Super User

2010-07-20 1 min read Bash Linux

I was working on something and needed to output the string n times. I have required this even to print a line with ’-’ or ’=’ but this time I badly wanted it in bash. So I searched google and found this:

printf ”Amit Agarwal%.0s” {1..5}
