reredirect - A tool to dynamically redirect outputs of a running program

reredirect is a utility for taking an existing running program and
attaching its outputs (standard output and error output) to files or
another process.

Using reredirect, you can log output of a already launched process,
redirect debug output of a background process to /dev/null or to a pager
as if you launched it with > or |.

---------------

This package is very similar to the retty[1], unfortunately, retty
upstream seems stalled since 2008... and it's compiled on i386 only.
(I filed a bug to ask for other archs, see bug #779995 )
