I need to redirect the output of a child process to a file,
I am working with Turbo C,

what  I did was :

char *args[] = { "child.exe",
                 "argument",
                 ">",
                 "filename",
                 NULL   };

and than :

spawnl(P_WAIT,args[0],args[0],args[1],args[2],args[3],args[4]);

and it didnt work,does anyone know why ?

Many thanks
