Using jsx command-line compiler -- won't compile to file

I have what is probably a simple jsx question, so please forgive my stupidity.

I'm playing with React's jsx command-line compiler. I have a VERY simple JSX file that looks like this:

var helloWorld = React.createClass({
    render: function() {
        return <div>hello</div>
    }
})

If I type the following in the command-line, it compiles (and shows me the result in the console): jsx test.jsx

I want to output this file to test.js. But if I try the command jsx test.jsx test.js nothing happens -- it only outputs the help information for the jsx command.

Any ideas? I feel like it should be obvious.

Ok, silly mistake. This command solves it:

jsx test.jsx > test.js. The > puts the output into a file. Simple enough.
