I was trying to check for a situation that is happening in script where output-redirection is involved. The original snippet that led me to this experiment is as follows --- echo -n "Status : " >> logfile cat results >> logfile echo "" >> logfile echo "----------------" >> logfile results never contain a new line, but a simple string consisting of english alphabets (dumped into this file by some tool before). Expected output in logfile for this sequence is of the form -- Status : XXXXXXX ----------------------- Most of the times the output is as expected, but sometimes it turns out to be like Status : XXXXXXX----------------------- > > | [1] for i in list-of-file-name > > | do > > | echo ............. $i ................ > > | cat $i > > | done > > | > > | Sometimes the order of echoed statement and corresponding file content gets > > | changed and I end up getting output like > > | > > | .............. file20 ...................... > > | .............. file21 ...................... > > | .............. file22 ...................... > > | contents of file20 > > | contents of file21 > > | contents of file22 --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
