NAME
     tee -- duplicate standard input

SYNOPSIS
     tee [-ai] [file ...]

DESCRIPTION
     The  tee utility copies standard input to standard output, making a copy in
     zero or more files.  The output is unbuffered.

     The following options are available:

     -a      Append the output to the files rather than overwriting them.

     -i      Ignore the SIGINT signal.

     The following operands are available:

     file    A pathname of an output file.

     The tee utility takes the default action for all  signals,  except  in  the
     event of the -i option.

     This implementation of the tee utility may also write to unix(4) sockets.

EXIT STATUS
     The tee utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

EXAMPLES
     Send the echoed message both to stdout and to the greetings.txt file:

	   $ echo "Hello" | tee greetings.txt
	   Hello

STANDARDS
     The tee utility is expected to be IEEE Std 1003.2 ("POSIX.2") compatible.

HISTORY
     The tee command first appeared in Version 7 AT&T UNIX.
