Hello ,

I am unable to solve a trivial questions.

set -o command show us many values. We can change these values here e.g

# set -o noclobber

will change the value of noclobber to on .

How can be reverted value of this like I want to set the noclobber again off?

set +o noclobber
'foo >| file' if you want to clobber something even with noclobber set, though.

(Assuming bash, at least)
