MySQL uses tee to record statements and output logs
From the mysql command line, you can record statements and output to a specified file using the tee command. It can be very useful in debugging.
Each time a statement is executed, mysql refreshes the execution result to the specified file. The Tee feature takes effect only in interactive mode.
