[texhax] Redirection towards «xdvi.log».

[Yves Perret]

Hello Misters Hammond and Lueck,

I tried the last proposal of Uwe Lueck, but even after adaptation of
the latter to the «tcsh» shell, the file «xdvi.log» which is generate,
is still empty, like shows it the following instructions' lines:

> cd ~/ScientificVisual/Diagrammes\ en\ bâtonnets\ colorés/
> xdvi algorigramme_des_étapes_d\'interprétation.dvi 2>&1 | tee
xdvi.log
Redirection de sortie ambigue.
> xdvi algorigramme_des_étapes_d\'interprétation.dvi 2> &1 | tee
xdvi.log
Redirection de sortie ambigue.
> xdvi algorigramme_des_étapes_d\'interprétation.dvi 2>&1 |  xdvi.log
Redirection de sortie ambigue.
> echo $SHELL
/usr/bin/tcsh
> xdvi algorigramme_des_étapes_d\'interprétation.dvi | & tee xdvi.log
> ls -l xdvi.log 
-rw-r--r--   1 yperret  users          0 mars  2 23:52 xdvi.log
>

Tomorrow, I shall try the suggestion of Mister Lueck.
