I think this refers to things you can do in the WIndows command line or
the *ux shell. Example<br><br>
someprompt&gt;python foo.py &gt; somefile.txt<br><br>
directs any stdout from the python program to somefile.txt. &gt;&gt; does
same except appends to somefile.txt</blockquote><br>
I think that it refers to this:<br><br>
