How do I save the output of a command to a file?
Is there a way without using any software? I would like to know how.

Yes it is possible, just redirect the output (AKA stdout
) to a file:
SomeCommand > SomeFile.txt
Or if you want to append data:
SomeCommand >> SomeFile.txt
If you want stderr
as well use this:
SomeCommand &> SomeFile.txt
or this to append:
SomeCommand &>> SomeFile.txt
if you want to have both stderr
and output displayed on the console and in a file use this:
SomeCommand 2>&1 | tee SomeFile.txt
(If you want the output only, drop the 2
above)
