I tried that, it just writes to file and doesnt show any output

amvx - are you sure you are writing to stdout and stderr, and are you sure that your %CTODAY% is valid? 'cause if I do it with Python, everything works as expected.

Ah, so you mean show output on "the screen."

Answer 2

+1 A:

The only way that I have found to do this is by using some variant of the UNIX tee command. You would use it like:

[your command] 2> error.log | tee ok.log
