Here's something that I worked out looking at 4 Unix and 2 Linux books.

If you want to run a command xyz and save the results in a file, do this :

./xyz 2>&1 | tee xyz.log

./xyz runs the program as it normally does. 2>&1 combines both the
standard output and the standard error streams into one stream.
the "|" is the (broken) vertical bar, sometimes over the "\" character,
and means pipe the output to ... in Unix and Linux.
Tee makes 2 copies of the output, and sends one to your screen, so
you can see what is going on.
xyz.log is the name of a file where the output is recorded.

Once you've got the output captured in a file, you can attach it to email,
insert it into an email message, or copy it to another system if you can't
run Netscape on the Linux system.
