I've just written a program which is dumping various debugging information 
to stdout.  When I started the program running I forgot to add the pipe to 
tee to also save the output in a file.  So, armed with only the process id 
of the program in question, is there a way that I can redirect stdout to 
also go to a file without having to kill my program and restart it?  
Basically, I want to attach a pipe to a program which is already executing. 


Normally I'd just kill the process and restart it with the pipe to tee, but 
I'm processing a huge chunk of data and I don't want to stop it in the 
middle of it's execution.
