Well, there is another way to copy all console output in a file:
echo: func [
"Copies console output to a file."
[catch]
target [file! none! logic!]
/append
][
if port? system/ports/echo [
close system/ports/echo
system/ports/echo: none
]
if target = true [target: %rebol-echo.txt]
if file? target [
system/ports/echo: throw-on-error [
either not append [
open/write/new/direct target
] [
target: open/direct target
skip target 4294967295 ; highest int should move to the end
target
]
]
]
]
Just launch
echo %my_file.txt
and you'll obtain all console output in your file.
Don't you believe me?
Try:
echo %my_file.txt
? print
? append
editor read %my_file.txt
You can capture also console output in a string for later processing, see: http://www.rebol.org/view-script.r?script=capture.r
ReplyDeleteThank you. I was about to write a comment suggesting that you explain why this works. But first, I stared at it, and stared at it, and tried it, and looked at some "help" screens, and, suddenly, I UNDERSTOOD it. Big day for me.
