5350.0. "Redirecting PRT: to a File" by VERGA::MACDONALD (Home of Digital Realtime Pubs) Wed Jan 15 1992 13:20
I have a program that open the PRT: device, sends data to it, closes
it, then waits for more data to come along before opening the PRT:
again. I would like to redirect this output directly to a disk file.
I have tried the following:
CMD parallel COLLECT.TXT OPT m
However, that method creates a new file everytime the PRT: device is
opened. What I end up with is COLLECT.TXT.1, .2, .3 and so on.
I need to have all the data sent to one file, in other words appended
to an existing file. Is there a way to do this?

5350.1 | pipe ? | NOTNEC::MCGHIE | Thank Heaven for small Murphys ! | Wed Jan 15 1992 23:48 | 8 |
| Could you redirect it to a pipe and the pipe output into a file ?
A process would have to be emptying the pipe output into the
file and then you would have to gave some way of stopping it
when you were all done.

| Starting with the 1.3 release, there was a program called CMD which did just
that - grabbed PRT: output and stuffed it in a file. Look in the docs for
details.
