Bug #874
Updated by pavalos over 12 years ago
Hi, I was testing a few things, and I was wondering if that behavior is normal: $ exec 3>&1 $ echo toto >&3 toto $ echo toto > /dev/fd/3 toto $ exec 3>&- $ echo toto >&3 toto $ echo toto > /dev/fd/3 cannot create /dev/fd/3: Bad file descriptor Why is >&3 ignores the redirection, but not /dev/fd/3? It seems to me like a bug. SR
