Is it possible to append to another file via redirection in Gulam?
The manual doesn't mention this anywhere and I thought it may be less than
obvious about how to go about doing it. I would just like to do a simple
'czprint filename >> datafile' (Czprint dumps data to the standard output).
Anyway, I found an indirect way of doing this, but it has one side
effect. First, my shell file looks like this....
foreach i { *.cz }
czprint $i
endfor
This script is executed via the command line 'catalog.g > datafile'.
Althought the script works to completion, the datafile doesn't have an
end-of-file terminator in it. When I edit the file or print it out (ie,
with LESS), the editor crashes when it gets to the end of the file!
Is this a bug with Gulam????
