I think I've run into the first issue you describe, and I'm having a hell of a time trying to understand it. Would you mind taking a look at my example and helping me out? Consider the following: cd /tmp/ echo -e "hello world\nhello world\n:)" >> hello.txt cat hello.txt Outputs: hello world hello world :) Then running bash -c 'sed s/"hello"/"hiiii"/ hello.txt | tee hello.txt' cat hello.txt yields hiiii world hiiii world :) Reseting to the original `hello.txt` and running ssh localhost -t 'cd /tmp && sed s/"hello"/"hiiii"/ hello.txt | tee hello.txt' cat hello.txt yields an empty file. Replacing the command with ssh localhost -t 'cd /tmp && sed s/"hello"/"hiiii"/ hello.txt >> hello.txt' yields hello world hello world :) hiiii world hiiii world :) I'm trying to figure this out so I can publish a script to set up a test env for a package I'm trying to publish, and somewhat stuck on this step...
