| Mar 9, 2015 at 16:19 | comment | added | Rob | Also, many people refer to stdin stdout and stderr as input or output 'streams'. There are like small rivers of data hence a stream. You were correct to grapple for a word to describe them collectively but signal is just the wrong word. | |

| Mar 9, 2015 at 0:17 | comment | added | Abdul Al Hazred | in linux each command has one input and two outputs. they are labeled with 0 (for input) , 1 (for output) and 2 (for error output) . I was thinking of 1 when i said "output signal" because I read that the tee command splits only the output labeled 1. When I said "network of commands" I was not very technical, I am not sure how network is defined correctly from a mathematical point of view, but I was simply thinking of a tree of commands typologically speaking, so that some commands can be parents to more than one child command. | |
