Which s great on the data being obtained, yyet fails to retain the nature
of the exact command that retrieved the data, so make sure one either
tee's allcommands to a file <date stamps can help here> or one runs script
or something. This helps if one has data results that are similiar and
they need to know which command applies to which data, as well as make it
possible to dupe scenarios.
Thanks,
