With the command line if I am running a python file I can enter:

python filename.py < filename.in > filename.out

Is there a way to mimic this behavior in PyCharm?

In the Edit Configurations screen under Logs tab check the option: Save console output to file and provide a FULL PATH to the outputfile. thats it - works like magic
