cli logging

[juGGaKNot]

Hi.

I'm going out of my mind, i can't get logging to work

I want everything i see in the cmd to be logged to a .txt file at the end.

i tried > .txt but it does not work, how can i log stderr, stdin and stdout ?

So what can i use and where should i put it in the bat ?

2> logs stderr.

2> logs stderr.

'stderr.' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

windows xp and vista is the target.

windows xp and vista is the target.Do I have to make it clearer?

"2>" logs stderr. That's what it does. It logs stderr.

Any examples ?command blah blah blah 2> file.txt

[juGGaKNot]

command blah blah blah 2> file.txt

+ i want only what i see on the screen with 2> i get it all, frame by frame ( for faac and mp4box ) and for x264 i do not get anything.

ah and 2> i do not see it on the screen, just in the log.

maybe some external app ? mtee (http://commandline.co.uk/mtee/index.html) ?

+ i want only what i see on the screen with 2> i get it all, frame by frame ( for faac and mp4box ) and for x264 i do not get anything.Yes, because those programs output to stdout, not stderr.
ah and 2> i do not see it on the screen, just in the log.Yes, because you're redirecting the output to a file.

Learn how to use "tee" if you want it in both places.

Ahh so mtee is the way to go

tee does not exist for windows xp from what i've read.

Sure it does. Just because it doesn't come with Windows doesn't mean it doesn't exist. There are two native versions (1 (http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/) 2 (http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/)) and one for cygwin
