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.

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.
