6. The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (30 December 2018)
tee

    A Unix command which copies its
   standard input to its standard output (like cat) but
   also to a file given as its argument.  tee is thus useful in
   pipelines of Unix commands (see plumbing) where it
   allows you to create a duplicate copy of the data stream.
   E.g.

   	egrep Unix Dictionary | tee /dev/tty | wc -l

   searches for lines containing the string "Unix" in the file
   "Dictionary", prints them to the terminal (/dev/tty) and
   counts them.

   Unix manual page: tee(1).
