One of my favorite is the following bash command:
<pre><code>exec 1&gt; &gt;(logger -s -t $(basename $0)) 2&gt;&amp;1
</code></pre>which added at the top of your bash causes all <code>stdout</code> and <code>stderr</code> to be direct to syslog while instructing the <code>logger</code> to include the name of the script (via <code>$(basename $0)</code>) making debugging easier. What&#39;s your favorite?

One of my favorite is the following bash command:

	exec 1> >(logger -s -t $(basename $0)) 2>&1

which added at the top of your bash causes all `stdout` and `stderr` to be direct to syslog while instructing the `logger` to include the name of the script (via `$(basename $0)`) making debugging easier. What's your favorite?
