TPIPE output to tmp9:

This works;

E:\Utils>pshell /s "$PSVersionTable" | tpipe /simple=11

This does not work;

E:\Utils>tmp /c tmp9: & pshell /s "$PSVersionTable" | tpipe /simple=11 /output=tmp9:

type tmp9:

From the help file;

/output=filename

Filename to write. This can be either a disk file or CLIP:. If it is not specified, TPIPE will write to standard output.

The output filename can also be any of the CLIPn: or TMPn: pseudo-devices.

Can anyone else duplicate this?

I can reproduce it. CLIPn: doesn't work either.

TPIPE output to CLIPn: and TMPn: do work. What's wrong is your expectation that CLIPn: and TMPn: are the same in all TCC sessions.

CLIPn: and TMPn: are specific to the current TCC session. You are piping to another TCC session, where TMP9: is set as expected, and then you exit the child pipe session and TMP9: reverts to the parent's value (i.e., empty).

If you want to use CLIPn: and TMPn: as output, you should use DOS pipes (i.e., "|!").
