    Hi,

    I am writing one of my first perl scripts and would like to send
    output to a logfile and stdout simultaneously. In addition, I'd like
    to be able to specify that some output only be sent to STDOUT or only
    to the logfile.

    Currently, I am using the following to print to stdout and the logfile
    simultaneously.

    open(STDOUT, "| tee -a $logFileName");

    To print only to the logfile, I create a filehandle for it in the
    usual sense

    open(LOGFILE, ">>$logFileName");

    The problem is that I have no way of specifying output to only
    standard output, leaving the logfile alone. Can anyone tell me how to
    do this? I would greatly appreciate any help.

    Thanks,

    Jeremy
