Hi there,

you've got some fancy percentage-display for the progress report - which is of course useful if you're working single files. Since in my case big amounts of data are to be processed I'd rather like to stream that into logfiles during my batch processing.

exec > >(tee $(date +%F)_$(date +"%I-%M-%S")_main_log.txt)
exec 2>&1

But sadly that isn't the case. Any ideas? P.S: I invoke djvubind in my script in the according folder with djvubind -v and it runs perfectly.

I'm afraid you're beyond my skills in the terminal with exec and tee. Most of the messages are just python's print() with a \r at the end to send the cursor back to the start of the line (and update the status as it goes). Warnings and errors get sent to stderr.

@boredland When you say that isn't the case, what exactly isn't the case? The use \r suggests that you should at least get something, even if it's just the conclusion. ;)
