Hi John,

Let me explain how the redirect works. When you use>  somefile.log after a 
command, that means send any output from the command to somefile.log Because we 
didn't specify an exact location for the file, it gets created in the current 
working directory. If we had run this

xev>  /tmp/somefile.log

Then it would be in the /tmp directory.

Hope that makes sense,
Bodsd


Hi, it has helped. Thank you.
