These are not variables, they are file handles.
0 = Standard In
1 = Standard Out
2 = Standard Error
If you want all errors to be sent to Standard Out instead of Standard
In, append your command with 2>&1. This way, you can pipe the output
through something like tee, more, less, or redirected to a file.
side note, if you want both stdout and stderr both redirected to a file,
say /tmp/output.txt, you can do that with a command &>/tmp/output.txt
Hope this helps
