CLIX 1.8.1c (Mac OS X)
If you run a command through sudo and have it's standard error output redirected to a file, the command will "run" forever with no results. It seems to me that Clix treats password request as standard error output, and in this case simply redirects it where it's not supposed to (the file to which you redirect the output will have the following content "Password:"). Obviously, after that, the rest of the command never runs. If you want to see it yourself, try, for example: sudo echo 'This text should be displayed' 2> ~/Desktop/std_err_output.txt It works in Clix 1.8.1.c and earlier, OSX 10.5, 10.4, 10.2. (I have tried it in the free version of Clix only, not the ACP version.) [alert admin]
