It is more pleasant to the eye if you remove the spaces: <infile some_cmd >outfile Just like you wouldn't add spaces in the middle of '2>&1' when redirect

Just like you wouldn't add spaces in the middle of '2>&1' when redirecting stderr to stdout:
<infile some_cmd >outfile 2>&1
- hk__2 3y ago> Just like you wouldn't add spaces in the middle of '2>&1' when redirecting stderr to stdout: Mostly because if you do it doesn’t work: '2 >&1' is not the same as '2> &1' (invalid syntax) which is not the same as '2>& 1', which …is the same as '2>&1'.
