Do you want to redirect some statement from within your python file? Or just redirect whatever gets printed out from the script to a file @Cel — Devesh Kumar Singh, May 14 '19 at 05:18
@DeveshKumarSingh i want to print to .txt file whatever the output message in the terminal, btw im calling the python script via .bat and scheduled it to run via windows task scheduler. — Cel, May 14 '19 at 05:32
Then use a logger module where you direct whatever you want from within the file! — Devesh Kumar Singh, May 14 '19 at 05:38
take a look at https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.html — Devesh Kumar Singh, May 14 '19 at 07:08
