Run an executable file in a bash script?

[abubakarmalik]

Hello,

I have a small application (software), i am not sure exact type of it but it's executable and i can run it like this;
./nameOfApplication
when its running, i can view/add/update/delete products by passing integer keys/values (1,2,3,4) respectively.

Now i want to make a shall script inside which i can run the above application, pass an integer to view the products and save the result into a txt file. I tried the following but it's not working.

#!/bin/bash
./nameOfApplication \
1
> tmp.txt

Anybody have an idea how to achieve this?

Thanks and regards,
Malik
