- If only I could get the output from a script that
- is executed by cron to display on the terminal! Before I
- knew it, cron had mailed 411 messages to root. the messages
- were one liners, the line that was suppose to be echoed to
- the screen!
- there is a line in the script that reads:
-
- echo "bla bla bla bla"
-
- I have tried to use wall, xmessage, tmessage, and a few others.
- I tried redirecting crons output, but am not sure that I had done
- it correctly.
- I'm on a Data General AViiON 300 workstation, running DGUX 5.4.1
- Can someone please get my output from this very simple script to
- the screen!
- Thanks in advance!!
