Question

I tried following this but that doesn’t work in Unix.

I’ve been running this command :

gcc temp.c -o temp.o 2> err.txt

And got the following error:

gcc: 2: No such file or directory

Any ideas what that shouldn’t work? Maybe because I’m using it over a Unix server?

Answer 1

In tcsh you don’t use 2> to redirect stderr, you use >& that will redirect both stdout and stderr. If you want to redirect them separately, have a look at this quick guide.
