Subject: Rake questions

1. Is there some reason to prefer
      sh %{ls -ltr}
    over
      sh "ls -ltr"
    ?

2. My standard csh idiom for creating a log
    file is this:
        ls |& tee test.log

    But when I try that in sh, the process
    hangs, and nothing is written. truss
    shows this:
      waitid(P_PID, ...WEXITED|WTRAPPED|WNOWAIT)
      (sleeping...)

    Is there a Rakefile idiom for displaying
    execution results and also saving them
    in a file?

3. A single quote (') in a comment causes a parse
    error. Is this a known rake bug? If not,
    what's the best way to report it?

thanks
eric
