i want to capture to a file the output of perl's '-c' command-line option, as
in:

perl -c someScript >someFile

perl insists on simply dumping the output to the screen. is there a solution
to this?

thanks,

It looks like it's using STDERR for output. Try this:

perl -c someScript >somefile 2>&1

You can send it there directly:

perl -c someScript 2>somefile

perl -c someScript 2>&1 | tee somefile

tee(1) only works with stdout, perl -c sends its output to stderr.
