Here is the program I use. Syntax is simple. On any command that pipes the
output (stdout) to a file, put "TEE" at the beginning of the line. i.e.
"TEE MAKE > OUT". This is the same as "MAKE > OUT", but whatever "MAKE"
sends to stdout is displayed on the screen. You can also use
"TEE <cmd> | MORE", because "|" really sends stdout to a file. Note: some
programs buffer the output, so you will see a burst of data, perhaps 512
bytes, every so often.

This program works by running "COMMAND.COM /C <arg>". It traps DOS
interrupts 02H (PutChar), 06H (Direct Console I/O) 09H (PrintString) and
40H (WriteFile). If stdout is a file, then TEE uses bios routines to
output the character(s) to the screen, and then calls the normal DOS
routine to complete the call. For WriteFile, TEE sees if the file handle
is stdout.
