RE: Pipe "make" stdout and stderr to process?


make 2>&1 | filterprog

If you try "make | filterprog 2>&1" you are redirecting stderr for
filterprog only.

Subject:	Pipe "make" stdout and stderr to process?

How do I run "make" so I can pass both stdout and stderr to a filtering
process?  I'm familiar with writing the output to a file, taking both stdout
and stderr ("make > make.out 2>&1"), but I don't see how to get this to work
if I just want to pipe the output (both stdout and stderr) to another
process.  When I do "make | filterprog 2>&1", it seems to have no effect, in
that it appears as if the stderr from "make" goes directly to the console.
>From reading the "bash" man page, it almost seems as if redirection doesn't
apply to piping.
