A quick clarification first:  Root's default shell is the Bourne shell, sh.
User's default shell is csh.  And presumably when User su's, his shell
becomes the Bourne shell.  The machine is running 3.1, btw.  (Does anyone
know if it is the same on Solaris 7?)

Almost all I do on the machine has to be done as root, so we are talking
Bourne shell.  I'd like a simple formula for sending stdout and stderr to a
file when I run make.  The man page has me totally confused.  In other
words:

command [some incantation involving 12&> and a filename, possibly with |]

which lets me see what's going on on the screen and save the same stuff to a
file.

TIA

mvh/regards

James
