A slightly different approach is required here I think.
command | tee -a file.log
This will put output in file.log and the terminal.
If you want to view the same log on many terminals,
do a tail -f file.log in each one.
As for autocreating a new log depending on the
output from command...emm? I think you'll have
to write something to do this yourself, like..
command | tpipe "mylogger"
Your mylogger would create the various logfiles
depending on the command output, and all the output
is copied onto the terminal.
