Hi John,

Try the tee command. If you are in the /bin/sh shell:

   sh 2>&1 | tee /dev/tty3

or if you are in /bin/tcsh:

   tcsh | & tee /dev/tty3

Everything you type will also appear on /dev/tty3. (tty3 is an example
ofcourse...)  You need to have write permissions on /dev/tty3.

   Regards,

      Jos.
