How can I pipe the output of one program to another, but also have it appear on screen.
For example, to duplicate what winds up on the clipboard in dir | clip, or to see what's happening along the way in longer chains.
Answer
If you have a copy of tee that runs on Windows, such that dir | tee NUL | clip loads the clipboard, but doesn't display anything on the screen (behaving as you would expect dir | clip to), try dir | tee con | clip. (con is short for “console”; it’s Windows’ equivalent of /dev/tty. nul, naturally, is Windows’ equivalent of /dev/null.)
