Hi,

    I'd like to see a tee program which will do something like:

C:\> make | tee > out

The tee programs that I have seen are worthless in this regard because MSDOS
does not multitask.  So what about:

C:\> tee make out

Here tee runs make sending the output to both stdout and to the file out.  To
do this, tee would have to hook the appropriate DOS int 21 write string to
stdout call.  This seems doable but I have not seen it done.
