Re: how to keep output of apt-get in a file ?

[Kirk Hogenson <Kirk.Hogenson@wingra.com>]

You could use tail -f in a different window:

xterm #1> apt-get upgrade >output.txt 2>&1
xterm #2> tail -f output.txt

or maybe in the same window by backgrounding the first.

Or, you could use tee:

  apt-get upgrade 2>&1 | tee output.txt | tee
