Using environment Variables
Are like variables in programming languages, they hold data to be referred to by the variable name.
Three are most important:
Standard input: programs accept keyboard input via standard input or stdin. Most cases
from keyboard.
Standard output: Text mode programs, displayed on the screen, full screen text mode
session or in a GUI windows such as xterm, aka stdout.
Standard Error: This output stream is intended to carry high priority information such as
error messages.
Redirecting input and output
$echo $NNTP > nntpserver.txt

overwritten.
< Sends the contents of the specified file to be used as standard input.
<< Accepts text on the following lines as standard input.
<> Causes the specified file to be used for both standard input and standardoutput.
Someprog << EOF = causes someprog to accept input until it sees a line that contains only the string
EOF.
Tee: This command splits standard input so that it’s displayed on standard output and on as many
files as you specify.
$ someprog | tee output.txt

Programs can frequently operate on other programs outputs.
$first | second | third | fourth | fifth […]
