....
I tried Google.. now here.. I have this code, which works for me in bash-4.2.0:
Code: Select all
cvlc "$FILE" vlc://quit &>>"$LOGFILE" &
Anyway... The code does not work (reportedly) in bash 3 .. apparently this does (a space before >>):
Code: Select all
cvlc "$FILE" vlc://quit & >>"$LOGFILE" &
..
The code is loaded from within a func.. That func is not loaded as a background process.. But often that func is itself loaded inside another func which IS run as a background process ... As is, it all works for me..
I tried a few things, until it got messy and things got worse.. Any guidance on what's going on here would be greatly appreciated..
