Depends on your shell. Bash understands both &> and >&. The C shell (where the construct originated) just supports >& but since nobody uses a C shell anymore who would ask "Am I using the wrong redirection operator?", this is mostly of historical relevance for guessing what modern shells might do. Dash does not support either: calling the above would run make all in background, in parallel with turning make.log into an empty file. If you want to be on the safe side, write make all >make.log 2>&1 since this will work on all shells known to me. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
