well thanx for the link but the tutorial is too concise and i need bit in detail

[nick_goodfate]

well at least now you know that what you want to do is called piping, in case you didn't already knew...

from the moment you send the output of your program to an other device/program instead of the standard output (your terminal), it's up to this device/program what will do with this output. So you may need to check the manual of gedit(if you want to send the output to a txt)

"man gedit" in terminal without ""

and of course you can search Google for mare details about piping and redirection...

Marke this thread as solved and post in the Programming Talk forum.

Post your complete program and indicate where it's not doing what you want it to do. Other coders will be able to see what you need to change. Don't just ask general questions, be specific.

...Or you could ask a moderator to move your question but still be more specific if you want useful help.

Be more specific on what you want. Give an example. For example, which is the form of the file in which you want to send your output? It's an empty one and you want to write to the end of it? is it something like that:

line1
line2
line3
and you want to put it after "line2"? Then you have to read the file line after line and when you read "line2" write your output.
Anyway i hope you find someone to help you, but i'm really suggesting you to do what QLee told you...
