RE: Problem the TEE command

[Brad Norling]

Ok - thank you.  I think I figured it out.  It works from within documents 
folder, but not under program files.  This is on a company owned laptop, and I 
think the issue was permissions.

Thanks for the fast response!

Brad

The tee from cygwin works for me on my Windows box (where tee --version reports 
8.15).  You didn't mention where you got your build of tee, or what version it 
is, but this may be a porting problem where you are better off complaining to 
the person that pre-built the binary you are using than here, because we are 
unable to do anything about a bad port on this upstream list.  If you aren't 
already using cygwin, might I suggest that as a reasonable port of GNU tools to 
Windows (see cygwin.com).
