How do I save or redirect stdout and stderr into different files?

To save or redirect the standard output (stdout) and standard error (stderr) into different files in Linux, you can use the > and 2> operators in combination with the command command.

The > operator redirects the standard output of a command to a file. The 2> operator redirects the standard error of a command to a file.

For example, to redirect the standard output and standard error of the ls command to the output.txt and error.txt files, respectively, you can use the following command:

‮‬refer to:lautturi.com
ls > output.txt 2> error.txt

This will redirect the standard output of the ls command to the output.txt file and the standard error of the ls command to the error.txt file.

Alternatively, you can use the &> operator to redirect both the standard output and standard error of a command to the same file. For example, to redirect both the standard output and standard error of the ls command to the output.txt file, you can use the following command:

ls &> output.txt

By using the >, 2>, or &> operators, you can save or redirect the standard output and standard error of a command into different files in Linux. It's always a good idea to carefully review the documentation and use the appropriate options and syntax when working with these operators. This will help ensure that your output and error messages are saved or redirected correctly and that any problems are detected and addressed.
