# TEE(1L) manual page

## Name

tee - read from standard input and write to standard output and files

## Synopsis

tee [-ai] [--append] [--ignore-interrupts] [--help] [--version] [file...]

## Description

This manual page documents the GNU version of tee. The tee command copies the standard input to the standard output and any files given as arguments.

If a file being written to does not already exist, it is created. If a file being written to already exists, the data it previously contained is overwritten unless the -a option is used.

### Options

-a, --append
  Append the standard input to the given files rather than overwriting them.
--help
  Print a usage message on standard output and exit successfully.
-i, --ignore-interrupts
  Ignore interrupt signals.
--version
  Print version information on standard output then exit successfully.
