[opensuse] How to grep a save command in order to save the complete output of hwinfo to a txt file?
I have to put the complete hwinfo from the cli to a txt outputfile. I recall I can do this somehow with grep, but all the web resources speak about long scripts. Notwithstanding, I recall, a very simple command can do this. If somebody is knowledgeable I would appreciate.

hwinfo > outputfile Or did you mean something more complicated?

Is this what you're after: hwinfo >txtfile -- Per Jessen, Zürich (-1.6°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - your free DNS host, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Grep would be for capturing some portion(s) of standard output. To capture the complete standard output of hwinfo to a file, use ordinary redirection: hwinfo > hwinfo-output-file.txt -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

Ah, thank you very much. Now finally that is clearer to me. Great. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

The other way of doing it which can be very useful - "man tee" hwinfo | tee hwinfo.txt That will display the output on the screen at the same time, rather than just silently dumping it to file. Depends what you want which one you choose ... :-) (That's the trouble with linux - too many options :-) Cheers, Wol -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
