.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
\fBsponge\fR reads standard input and
|
|
writes it out to the specified file. Unlike a shell
|
|
redirect, sponge soaks up all its input before
|
|
opening the output file. This allows constricting
|
|
pipelines that read from and write to
|
|
the same file.
|
|
.PP
|
|
If no output file is specified, sponge outputs to
|
|
stdout.
