[Xorp-hackers] Hi,all. Is this a bug or just a mistake config?

[Aaron Shang]

You may try 'tee' for such purpose, such as:

/bin/echo '' | tee -a /tmp/a.txt

or just use 'tee' without '-a' to override the file.


Good luck.



BTW, you can attach ascii files using proper mime type in file name,
so as to include them in most mail readers:
$ cp test.tp test.tp.txt
