I need to know how to do the following in c code: command > textfile how to execute the ">" in c code? In other words how to I pipe the output in the terminal to a text file in c code? Are there any functions available? The temporary solution I have is to make a system call to execute the above command within my c code. system(command); Is there any other way?
