#devnull is cool. It's just an empty file forever. You can throw as much as you want into there, or read from it as much as you want, you're always going to get nothing back.
/dev/null is as empty as my soul.
Anyway.
So you can redirect your output, and you can pipe your output. Piping is useful when you want to send output from one command to any other command that operates on streams like say, stdin. You can try it like this:
echo "hey dude" | python -c 'print("cool", input())'

It's not the only ctrl code. ctrl+[ is escape. ctrl+m is return. ctrl+c sends the ASCII "end of text" symbol. You can type these literal characters in Vim:
ctrl+v, ctrl+c
ctrl+v, ctrl+[
ctrl+v, ctrl+m
You'll see ^C^[^M
Save your file and then send them through the hex dump tool #xxd - :%!xxd
(to get back :%!xxd -r)
Freaking sweet, huh? Who knew that #ASCII held such secrets?!
Okay, so redirecting to redirection, you may have seen something like `cat something.txt >/dev/null` #devnull ...
