Redirecting Output of `print' and `printf'
==========================================

   So far we have been dealing only with output that prints to the
standard output, usually your terminal.  Both `print' and `printf' can
also send their output to other places.  This is called "redirection".

   A redirection appears after the `print' or `printf' statement.
Redirections in `awk' are written just like redirections in shell
commands, except that they are written inside the `awk' program.
