I was wondering how to do that. My way of doing it was to surround a block of code with a while loop and redirect the contents of the fake loop.

while (( 1 = 1 ))
do
code here
break
done > script.log 2>&1

cat script.log

In regards to your actual question I think you have to explicity redirect standard error and output back to the terminal. I am sure someone will supply the exact syntax.

Here is a good one for you, I have been doing something in my korn shell scripts
which I really never understood and now need to change. :-)

I have the following line that sends the output from the shell script to a log
file:
exec > db_heartbeat.log 2>&1

At the bottom of my shell script I now want to stop sending the output to the
log file and instead print the log file to the screen.

Does anyone know how to turn of the exec line?

Thanks,
Tom
