SYNTAX
tee [ -i ] [ -a ] [ file ] ...
DESCRIPTION
Tee transcribes the standard input to the standard output and
makes copies in the files. If you specify the names of already-
existing files, they will be overwritten.
Tee is used mainly as part of a pipeline. If you execute it on a
command line by itself, it will take input from the standard
input until it receives a control d (^d). It will echo each line
to the standard output.
Options:
-i Ignore interrupts.
-a Append output to files rather than overwrite them.

EXAMPLES
$ ls | tee file.list
This command sends a list of all files in the current directory
to the standard output (the screen) and makes a copy in
file.list.
$ pr file | tee file.out | lp
This command sends a print-formatted version of file through a
pipe to lp, and also writes it to the file file.out.
