Description George R. Gonzalez 2001-02-22 22:33:40 UTC

cant redirect the output from "time"

time ls  2>here

Output goes to console, not "here"

Comment 1 Bernhard Rosenkraenzer 2001-02-25 16:48:35 UTC

You can by definition not redirect the output of shell builtins.
To achieve what you wanted to do, use /usr/bin/time ls 2>whatever
