NAMEstdbuf − Run COMMAND, with modified buffering operations for its standard streams.

SYNOPSISstdbuf OPTION... COMMAND

DESCRIPTION Run COMMAND, with modified buffering operations for its standard streams. Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too. −i, −−input=MODE  adjust standard input stream buffering −o, −−output=MODE  adjust standard output stream buffering −e, −−error=MODE  adjust standard error stream buffering −−help  display this help and exit −−version  output version information and exit If MODE is 'L' the corresponding stream will be line buffered. This option is invalid with standard input. If MODE is '0' the corresponding stream will be unbuffered. Otherwise MODE is a number which may be followed by one of the following: KB 1000, K 1024, MB 1000*1000, M 1024*1024, and so on for G, T, P, E, Z, Y. Binary prefixes can be used, too: KiB=K, MiB=M, and so on. In this case the corresponding stream will be fully buffered with the buffer size set to MODE bytes. NOTE: If COMMAND adjusts the buffering of its standard streams ('tee' does for example) then that will override corresponding changes by 'stdbuf'. Also some filters (like 'dd' and 'cat' etc.) don't use streams for I/O, and are thus unaffected by 'stdbuf' settings.

EXAMPLEStail -f access.log | stdbuf -oL cut -d ' ' -f1 | uniq
This will immediately display unique entries from access.log

BUGSOn GLIBC platforms, specifying a buffer size, i.e., using fully buffered mode will result in undefined operation.
