Package: moreutils Version: 0.60-1 Severity: wishlist Using pee to work with something generating output but also going through more processing before heading to a logfile gets icky, because pee always has the pipes it uses to talk to the child processes buffered.
e.g. output-generating-thing | pee "cat" "ts >logfile" results in the terminal output being batched due to the output buffer in pee for the pipe to cat, no matter how many places one adds stdbuf invocations. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'stable-debug'), (500, 'testing'), (490, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages moreutils depends on: ii libc6 2.24-11+deb9u1 ii libipc-run-perl 0.94-1 ii perl 5.24.1-3+deb9u2 moreutils recommends no packages.
