On further inspection: the `xtrace` is not related to the problem: script.sh ``` printf "FIRST LINE\n" > /dev/stderr printf "SECOMD LINE\n" > /dev/stderr ``` ``` $ bash script.sh FIRST LINE SECOMD LINE $ bash script.sh 2> file && cat file SECOMD LINE $ file /dev/stderr /dev/stderr: symbolic link to /proc/self/fd/2 ``` Thorsten -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
