History of 2022-03-26 A nice use-case for pee

		12:29 UTC Revision 1 . . . . mbork – Well, sorry for the click-bait-ish title;-)… Of course I meant this pee. It is similar to tee in that it can “split” the input stream, but while tee directs it to a few files (by default to stdout and to the given ones), pee directs it to pipes. You can give it names of commands and it will run them in succession and feed every one of them its input. (Unlike tee, it doesn’t put it to stdout, so you need an explicit cat to achieve that.) Here is a nice use-case.
