- Hi,
- a question OS2 gurus from a friend. In a make file he's used the
- following construct
-
- findfiles | prog1 | prog2
-
- Now, the piping operation only returns the status of prog2. Is there a
- way of accessing the return status of the other piped processes?
-
- At the moment he's having to pass information along through prog1 &
- prog2, which is unsatisfactory.
-
- Thanks in anticipation,
-
- Conrad DRake
