", but it still executed the command to completion!</blockquote> Only incidentally.<br/><br/> Code: <a>[Select]</a>typ nul &<a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/gt-249387" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about GT">GT</a>; somefile.txtSays to execute the command "typ nul" and redirect the standard output to "somefile.txt". since typ is not a command, the command fails, the message prints to the standard error stream, and then the standard output is redirected to the file, which in this case means nothing gets redirected, which incidentally is what the original command was intended to do. The only functional difference between:<br/><br/> Code: <a>[Select]</a>type nul > somefile.txt<br/>and <br/> Code: <a>[Select]</a>geeble gobble > somefile.txt<br/><br/>is that the latter will produce an error message in addition to redirecting nothing to the file.Thanks for the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/clarification-917667" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about CLARIFICATION">CLARIFICATION</a>. I see it now. Two separate results of any (is it accurate to say any?) command. It's like this:<br/> Code: <a>[Select]</a>geebles gobble but they don't gob down > somefile.txt Quote from: stew2652 on November <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/19-241909" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about 19">19</a>, 2014, 06:57:56 AM<blockquote>Interesting.
