Subject: Redirecting Output


Hi,

I'm trying this command from my perl program system ( "perldoc perldsc > tmp.txt"). I don't see the output going to the file tmp.txt; instead it shows the output
in the screen.How could I get the output in some text file.

I assume you're doing this on Windows, since what you've shown should work
fine on Unix.

Try this:

system("perl -S perldoc -t perldsc >tmp.txt");

perldoc is actually a .bat file on Windows, and batch files don't seem to
handle redirection properly on certain versions of Windows.

HTH
