That is indeed what I am referring to, but your syntax did not work either.

Perhaps by nature of 'exec', this can't be "undirected", but I've never
heard a "UNIX" and "can't" in the same sentence. LOL!

are you telling that a script redirects stdin and stdout,
and after execution stdin+stdout keeps redirected??

maybe try to close the filedescriptors ( 1>&- ) etc.

Probably a simple question, but I'm at a loss. Google has offered some
suggestions, but nothing helps.

I have a script that does an "exec 1>filename 2>fileerr".

After the task finishes, how do I re-open stdout and stderr again so I
can print stuff on the screen (such as end times and stuff) ?

Thanks, Bill.
