Can someone explain why this would make the command wait forever? What is tee waiting for?
echo "test" | sudo tee newfile
What would be a scriptable workaround for such cases?
Edit: this command would not terminate in zsh. This works fine in bash tho.
no way. I’m in /tmp for this one
echo 'test' | tee newfile tee: newfile: Permission denied test echo 'test' | sudo tee newfile #the prompt never returns when running this in zsh
