TEE bug?


From: Dean K. Gibson
Subject: TEE bug?
Date: Wed, 14 May 2008 13:00:09 -0700
User-agent: Thunderbird 2.0.0.14 (Windows/20080421)

Version  5.2.1 (from CentOS 4.1):

When the output from "tee" is piped to "head" (or presumably any other program that does not read all of stdin), tee gives "broken pipe" and "write error" error messages.

While that may be perhaps technically true, it was unexpected.

Of course piping stderr to /dev/null gets rid of the messages. You might consider an option to suppress the messages in this case, while allowing other messages.

Sincerely, Dean
