>> Append FileWrites stdin to disk - appending contents if file already exists
This is used to redirect the stdout of a command and append it to a file. If that file does not exist, then the file is created.
This behaves similarly to the Bash (et al) token except it doesn’t support adding alternative file descriptor numbers. Instead you will need to use named pipes to achieve the same effect in Murex.
» out "Hello" >> example.txt
» out "World!" >> example.txt
» open example.txt
Hello
World!This is just syntactic sugar for -> >>. Thus when the parser reads code like the following:
out "foobar" >> example.txtit will compile an abstract syntax tree which would reflect the following code instead:
out "foobar" | >> example.txtTo truncate a file (ie overwrite its contents) use |> instead.
